It has been confirmed. No-more Sir Boycs at the TMS. Are we surprised? Of course not. He is 79 years-old and out of the touch with the emerging "woke" world. There will be no commentator quite like him again. www.bbc.co.uk/sport/cricket/52944158

THE BOY'S BACK IN TOWN Training, straining, caning and wicket taking. Great to see Jof back at home amidst Ben's Hove pleasant pastures seen. Will we see Jof play at Hove this summer? To Covid or not to Covid-19 that is the question. www.youtube.com/watch?v=SGZqDzb__bwGuess who just got back today, That wild-eyed boy that had been away. Hasn't changed that much to say, But man, I still think that cat is crazy

www.youtube.com/watch?v=yDVCWKx0hIMGO on, go on, go on, go on, go on, go on... Please television execs give Monty a series on your broadcast network. He's off the radar now from being a weather forecaster to offering us silly facts like: Did you know most toilet paper sold for home use in France is pink and Sonic the Hedgehog’s full name is actually Ogilvie Maurice Hedgehog. This is classic comedy, new comedy, across the astral plane and floating with the angels comedy... Even The Times newspaper is advertising Monty's unique brand. Go on, go on, go on, go on, go on, go on...

Off-PisteIf you were born between the 1950s-1970s this tweet kinda makes sense? Followed by listening to this music video whilst viewing the next tweet. www.youtube.com/watch?v=rs9wuaVV33I

Now the Quarantine Cup is over, The Cricketer Magazine have taken the initiative, once more, and set up their "Lockdown Heroes" scheme. These are awards for those who have made a major difference during the pandemic and cricket’s closure. Five categories will be open for nominations, including Club Hero, Pro Hero, Social Media Hero, Young Hero and Fundraising Hero - and we’ll be asking the cricketing public to tell us who they feel is most deserving. Everyone who is nominated will get recognition of some form on TheCricketer.com, and we’ll run full articles on all those on the shortlist prior to a virtual awards ceremony in July. It’s an opportunity for you to champion the heroes of your own communities, and to celebrate the incredible feats of ingenuity, generosity and compassion that have flooded our game during the past two months.
Sadly, I am not sure whether any Sussex players can be put forward when compared to the feats of Stuart Broad, Harry Gurney, and the Essex CCC players (delivering hot meals to the staff of 14 local hospitals), although there is our own Ravi who offered FREE chicken takeaways to NHS staff (How long did this last for?) from his Tooting-owned Sam's restaurant; and what about those three cricketers from Hailsham CC delivering care packages to NHS staff and food to the local elderly? www.wscountytimes.co.uk/sport/cricket/coronavirus-cricket-club-sussex-providing-support-nhs-staff-amid-covid-19-pandemic-2518672

Important Ticket Refund Information
____________________________________________________ Sussex Cricket have released confirmation of refund details for individual ticket purchasers. Anyone who purchased individual tickets for Sussex matches in this year's County Championship, One-Day Cup or Vitality Blast and would like a refund are not required to take any action. The refund will be automatically processed by Tuesday 30th June. However, if you would like to waive your right to either a part or full refund, and allow it to be retained by the club during these testing times, or donate your refund to the 'Together Through This Test' fund, which supports the Sussex Cricket Foundation and other local charities, click BELOW and follow the guidelines. www.eticketing.co.uk/sussexcricket/authentication/login?ReturnUrl=%2fsussexcricket%2fmyaccount%2fmyticketsPlease note: if you do wish to waive your right to a refund or donate your refund, you must do so by 4pm on Friday 19th June. At this time, there is still hope of some cricket being played during the latter stages of the summer, so the Club therefore ask Membership and Blast Pass holders to remain patient as it awaits further scheduling advice from the ECB. Once the Club have a clearer understanding of how or when the season will be concluded, it will be in touch with Membership and Blast Pass holders, who will have the option to obtain a refund, defer their package to the 2021 season or waive their right to a refund to support the Club at this financially challenging time.

Excellent. I can't wait for Episodes 2 and 3. PS: Unfortunately, the link isn't working now. I've emailed them - link should be sorted soon. Looking forward to it as I have vivid memories of the season, particularly witnessing the recovery against Middlesex from 107-6. Also my dad phoning me in sick to school so we could drive down to Hove to see the entire day's play when the title was clinched. 12 years old and the only kid in the ground til mid afternoon that day! I have also listened to the interview with James Kirtley this evening which was excellent. Again...wonderful day and it feels like yesterday.

To all Sussex fans here is something to feel good about as a remedy to watching film footage of madness in the streets, statues being toppled or boarded up, and past classic TV comedy programmes being banned.
Sf,
Right now, we need this Shangri-La. Bring on those golden years of Sussex CCC memories.

Good heavens! £50 prize money for the winner of the best story? How generous of 1st Central. Just enough to cover a weeks' worth of petrol. Come on 1st Central be a little more forthcoming with the prize/s. Three prizes of £250, £150 and £50 will attract more supporters to write in. 1st Central's company accounts for 2019 (just filed) shows a £114,812 turnover with a profit before tax of £8,956. An increase overall from 2018. Perhaps, an accountant can figure out from this link what the company are roughly paying Sussex CCC for the ground naming rights (see Filing History). beta.companieshouse.gov.uk/company/06489797sussexcricket.co.uk/news/my-sussex-story-ryan-barney-james-kirtley-2006-cg-final-and-more
