I was told an Apple a day keeps the doctor away.

But I have an allergy to them so that doesn’t quite work.

A number of the playing staff attend the ground on training nights to help the youngsters. There are a lot of clubs/players who could learn from their example. You can see that they are there because they want to be, and it’s creating another generation of young cricketers who are invested in the c...

At the start and end of the season clubs are also competing with football on Saturdays, with just an odd Sunday.

With 1st/2nd on a Saturday they are likely to lose a number of supporters to the football, then have a quieter Sunday when the 3rd/4ths play.

Hope you all had a good day mate, I went on the 4ths. Battled hard but it was basically and U13 side vs U16s and they scored about 300, great day for it again. It was a bit of a miss match with the ages but they kept their spirits up till the end which was good to see, and look to have some very pr...

Do I really want to pay to go and watch players faking injury and cheating to gain an advantage? No, I lost interest in football a long time ago except for Burnley and England (although a visit to the dentist is less painful than watching England at the moment). However, I think there is so much (to...

Aside from club pros, colne 3rd xl and lowerhouse 4th xl had two young sides on display today. Something like 15 players under 18 between them, some promising young players for the future if they keep developing.

Just for clarification, Colne 3rds beat Ramsbottom Women by 10 wickets on Saturday, Colne 2nds beat Norden by 49 runs today, and Colne 1sts beat Greenmount by 19 runs (D/L) today.

Chris Harris hitting me for 5 sixes and 1 four in an over kind of ended my off spin career at the age of 16.

I think it takes a couple of hours the format they play nowadays... Everyone bat's for same amount of time, and are never out, so the poor ones get the same batting time as the good ones 8 players, 2 overs each bowler and each pair bats for 4 overs, no one is out, just loose point each wicket.

No, but I did go and see 1d, with my wife and daughters. Very different to what we would normally go and see, but I’ve got to admit they were entertaining and I’m glad I went. The only disappointment was the crowd. We are normally near the front at a gig, so we got standing tickets thinking it would...

I believe part of that is that after a few years where the junior teams fizzled out, they are now up and running again and some of the older juniors are ready for longer matches at weekend. There looks to be a few good players in each of the junior teams, so a good chance to give them experience of...

It’s my favourite ending to a series as well. The realisation that after all those episodes of cunning plans there isn’t going to be one, because, as he says, who would notice another madman there.

"The festival is run at a loss, but local bars and other businesses the festival is a huge money-maker." This quote probably sums up the situation.

In answer to why not flying, I like driving. It's a long trek from Chesterfield, but with a stop off midway at Stonehenge (never been, so why not?!) for a look around a bite to eat, it breaks it up a bit into two easier chunks of travel.

She seems so positive! Good on her for raising some awareness. Some small minded people dismiss what they don't understand.

To be fair the game was keenly contested but seemed to be played in the right spirit.

Just to clarify, as it won’t let me edit, it was clitheroe. Lowerhouse, and and everyone else, have been competitive but fair. There is just something about the attitude when they play clitheroe.

He could easily be No.2, either if De Gea goes or if they feel Henderson needs another 12 months elsewhere. This could be a good chance for him to win some silverware late in his career.

Oddly, I like watching Eurovision. The reason the UK didn't do well though is simple, the song was to rubbish to be a serious song, the singer took himself too seriously so it wasn't a cheesy act, and the singing was not good. I'm just surprised no-one gave us a minus score.

I think there are a combination of factors for the decline on the high street, but I can't see a way back for them now. The worst thing I think they did was the clamour for Sunday trading.
