I have thoughts, but when the last few times of sharing them lead to rapid wicket loss – this time I’ll just shut the fuck up. 
Probably for the best
Without wishing to tempt fate - a hundred stand for this wicket…
Tea at Headingly
If we can avoid the follow on that would be just peachy!!

for @ slug_7!! His 16th century for Hampshire in 205 balls (12 fours, 1 six) and his second against @ YorkshireCCC.
Wheater gone 
. 45 more needed…
Actually isn’t the avoid the follow on score 190 in county cricket or am I mis-remembering things?

Crap. Good on you correcting me but still Crappy McCrap face
Ervine’s gone - my fault, I thought about posting something positive.
Despite your jinxing McLaren is still there, on 40 and we need 25 more
That is an excellent day, especially as most of us feared carnage.
What a great effort with the bat!

Surely that means we will get at least a draw?

I think we might not win
Excellent effort - now all is needed is to get those wankers at the top of the order to get their asses in gear - for a change.
Superb fightback by the lads. I’d post my usual detailed thoughts, but truth be told, I’m a little sloshed in celebrating Goncarlo’s court victory already.
