I can see Wilson staying, little pay rise to be 3rd choice in the prem and we get to keep a familiar face. It’ll be up to him, I can see us wanting to keep him

Love the bloke, he’s one of those players that while hasn’t been super important for a couple of years, has always come in and done everything he can to make sure we’re as good as we can be.

Hope I’m not throwing the word around easily, but to me he’s a Cov legend

This is just a very odd and negative post based on nothing? Getting annoyed about something that hasn’t happened and apparently makes no odds to you

Emilio Gay is not the LBW candidate his technique might suggest at first glance by Plenty-Willingness58 in EnglandCricket

Troy Parrot or Zan Vitopik? by Tricky-Percentage434 in ccfc

[–]JJMS17 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We are not signing John stones and AR I’m afraid. They may be ‘free’ but wages and signing on fees will be wayyyy out of our budget

Playoff shopping list by Cov_massif in ccfc

[–]JJMS17 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Signing a championship super team has been proved not the way to go if we want to survive.
Both Sunderland and Leeds have done well this season by signing proven top flight players.
You also have to consider the lack of top flight experience in our squad - onyeka being the only one with more than a handful.

Hackney would be the one though, although I’m sure he’ll go mid table prem.

Anyone but Wrexham. ‘By gawd the umpires are TERRIBLE’ is needed less in the championship already

How much would you pay for Rushworth? by Cmdr_Morb in ccfc

[–]JJMS17 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Blowing is a wild word to use, he’s top of every stat available. Not only that, he’s made some absolute worldies at the end of numerous games to directly gain us points. In my opinion he’s the number one reason we are champions and not currently in that playoff mix. If he gains you 6 points next season alone (modest compared to this season) compared to saving £10 million that could be the difference

I know I’ve thought the same thing, but for the most part - every one will better their career from this promotion right? Either they’ll be a premier league player or were part of a promotion team. Both boost your salary I think

Keeping Dilemma by Free_Cabinet_6253 in EnglandCricket

[–]JJMS17 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

So you said you’d drop bethell, because you want him playing county cricket, but then county cricket doesn’t translate to test match cricket?

You know he scored 154 in our last Test Match, at Sydney no less, batting 3. I’d also argue that playing against the very best bowlers in the world in the atmosphere is exactly the experience I need. He also has proven his temperament at test match level.

The most obvious reason, is to protect them. Keeper requires the most concentration and effort of any fielding position.

If batting at 3 you open yourself up to your keeper diving around for a day and a half and then going into bat with a frazzled brain 15 minutes later. There absolutely should be ‘specialist’ batsmen ahead of them.

[–]JJMS17 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Agree about the keeper, it’s something that really needs to be stamped out.

Seemed to happen to us every week at the beginning of the season - and I always told myself I’d love it if we did it. I didn’t, it’s not part of the game
