Re: Lance league 20/20
Clitheroe win.
Good news for Burnley now in that Darwen can't win the treble,replocating Burnleys fantastic season. Them or Clitheroe will win a double now.

Lowerhouse are in the final of the LCB Lancashire Cup at Old Trafford on Sunday. They are due to face Ormskirk CC who won their Semi Final in the National Competition at Wolverhampton yesterday.DavidFishwicksDad wrote:It's not good for the Lancashire league that two new teams r doing so good 1st year in must have some good players me thinks utc
The 'House will go into the final as big underdogs but backed by several hundred supporters it promises to be a grand day out.
By the way it's free to go on with the A Stand, Pavilion and The Point stands being open.
Up the 'House.

Re: Lance league 20/20
The Lancs league wanted all the best clubs in the area to join the league extension, to make it a stronger standard. They underestimated the strength of local cricket I think. Darwen came 11th last year in the Northern league and Clitheroe were only playing in the Ribb league.DavidFishwicksDad wrote:It's not good for the Lancashire league that two new teams r doing so good 1st year in must have some good players me thinks utc
Lots of other strong cricket clubs coming in the league next year so paying players in the Lancs league will jump up another level.

Re: Lance league 20/20
All fair points, It cannot be denied though that from the teams that both Darwen and Clitheroe put out last season lets say they've recruited well over the winter. And Darwen finished 3rd in the 2016 Northern League not 11th..Quickenthetempo wrote:The Lancs league wanted all the best clubs in the area to join the league extension, to make it a stronger standard.

Yes both have recruited well. Clitheroe getting a top WKT Keeper instead of the captain who was a backstop will of been a massive boost especially with the spinning pro. They have big strength in depth though Clitheroe. They won yesterday without their best bowler Marcus Sharp. Not bad when Josh Marquet comes in though.

Mirza missed a lot of games Al Davies Jordan Clarke and Neil Cordingley didn't play any too name but a few.
The pro is a monumental upgrade on last season also. They've come into the Lancs League and invested in a pro, called in favours perhaps brown enveloped a few, some have made comebacks due to less travel etc and they've put a very very good squad together. Fair play, or is it?

Re: Lance league 20/20
At the beginning of the season I spoke to someone who was close to the darwen camp and they said the captains phone never stopped ringing with people wanting to come back to the club to play in the Lancs league/travel time etc.. but they were under the impression this new pro wasn't a patch on last years.RocketLawnChair wrote:Sorry my mistake it was 2015 they came 3rd.

I don't know who last years pro was but Calvin Savage seems to have done very well for them.
I think you're allowed to pay travel expenses in any league to players and the Northern league would have the biggest expenses.
Is it fair? I don't know, players always end up at bigger clubs. Padiham would have been better off if Joey Hawke,the Tripathi's and Q Ali never left to go Lowerhouse. But in turn they have all moved on to other clubs (I know Joey has come back), in these cases the coaching staff at Lancs advised moves to improve their chances at Lancs.

Re: Lance league 20/20
You're not allowed to pay travel expenses in the Lancashire League.
You can pay players to coach or groundsman etc but those players have to have been registered for 3 years before they can be paid in any capacity.
Jack Dewhurst is disclosed as Clitheroe's groundsman and Levi Wolfenden as a coach at Church. Not aware of any others although I am sure there will be among the clubs.

Re: Lance league 20/20
We were trying to sign a player from Colne a few years back and were told he wanted to stay there as they had a bonus scheme for the entire first team, I.e 2 pound a run 10 pound a wkt. Not long after they were nearly going out of business.
Rawtenstall have a player who was employed as a player/coach in the Ribb league for a couple of clubs and left when the money wasn't on offer anymore. Chances are he moved on for money again.
There's only Lowerhouse that I would be confident about not paying anyone in the last 5 years or so.

It's probably the 'rumours' that made clubs vote the way they did.
Ultimately a lad was stopped from playing so nobody has benefited.

Francois was not allowed to play because of a flow in his residency qualification, nothing to do with coaching. Others just presumed because he is a good un we must be paying. Francois just fell in love with our club from day one and now wants too play for us in his spare time. He had numerous financial offers on the table for this season but refused them all so as not to jeopardise is qualification for us next season.

Whatever makes the stronger standard is fine by me.

I represent the older generation, the whingers, and I have no problem with the richer clubs being able to afford better pros. I do, however, have a problem with clubs paying more than one player under some guise or another. Two Nelson amateurs joined Clitheroe this season and not for a change of scenery.Quickenthetempo wrote: It doesn't bother me either way.

Re: Lance league 20/20
Field play at Gt Harwood on Sunday and the only guy being paid by us will be Jonny Whitehead. We've lost plenty in recent seasons to paid posts, also, some "amateurs" haven't returned because we wouldn't pay, but punching above your level is something a lot of clubs are having to do and something most of us will have to learn to keep doing. On the flip side the standard of cricket at the leading clubs has definitely gone up a notch and it's in no small part down to the league expansion. No doubt it will improve further next season. Good luck to 'House on Sunday hope the weather holds

He was pro at Padiham when Joey Hawkesbury was at Harwood.
It's far harder having the pressure of being the professional than being good amateurs.
While pro Ben described facing Liam Bones and another opening bowler for bottom of the league Edenfield as the toughest he had faced. Cricket is a tpugh game to gage standards.

I can 100% guarantee that Lowerhouse do not pay any one other than Ocki for playing cricket. None of the players even get paid for coaching. They earn money from other clubs for coaching. We have never paid an amateur.
There would be no need to cheat with Ben, we could legitimately register him as a paid coach, no questions asked......if he was being paid.
If we were paying players I'd like to think that Jonny Whitehead, Matt Walker and possibly Will Driver would still be with us.

How about if you didn't get offered the pro job again? Would you just not play?
Also, there will come a point, as there does with every single professional footballer, where Wayne Rooney doesn't get paid for playing football.

I might be wrong but I imagine the majority of the team get paid at Colne FC. Clubs at that level all tend to pay.
