Could you PM as well please?

I'd be surprised if Jigar is still here next season. On the new signings, 3 year contracts at their age is a massive bonus for them, I would've given them 2 years but let's see, excited by Dexter.

I don't think Ben Smith or Lloyd Tennant will be leaving. Not heard the Muchall rumour either. Horton has been mentioned. Dexter is a brilliant signing for us.

Henry Davids is the Kolpak name being bandied about.

Weather for tomorrow looks terrible. I know we are after Harinath from Surrey but there's good competition for him.

Desperately trying to sign players but attracting them to join us...need I say more. Opener is the priority. McKay having a stormer again, terrific player for us. Good stuff from Cozzie too leading from the front, NOB too.

What's he said now?

Kushiro, this is what Merson had to say http://www.skysports.com/watch/video/sports/football/9942122/merson-sunderlands-defensive-woes

Wayne White the new (old) signing in the morning, apparently.

I'm a bit surprised we haven't given Kurtz, an opener from the 2nds a go in the first XI, could be in for the next Championship game.

Haha I have spoken with Fango, he does know a lot about the goings on at the club, but he's not my only source. The Kolpak player could be Grant Elliott, but there is another South African on the radar. Duckett wants to be the main WK which Northants don't fancy him doing as they have Rossington too, both quality. They prefer Duckett opens for them. Also, if he is to move, wants it to be within the Midlands area to a county where he will be first choice, and we obviously, are interested in him. Bigger clubs may well be too, but they have good keepers anyway. Wayne White doesn't get on with certain individuals at the club, if they leave, he will consider coming back. The drinking issues weren't just his alone, we had, back then and still now, a young bunch of lads who still enjoy going out on the lash, but things are a lot more stricter now Wasim and Macca are here. NOB is a decent LVCC wicket keeper, and an even better guy, but it's about time we move on, we are looking to improve in all areas. Stevens may not be young, but he'd be a brilliant player to have on our books, he's still a match winner in all forms, and an improvement on our current options.

Ned Eckersley wants out again, Middlesex and Essex interested, club will put a final contract offer for him on the table soon.

It's not Greg Smith. Chris Lewis hmmm.

It's not Cobb (yet) or Thakor. Personally, I liked Wayne White, not saying it's him though. Pretty confident Robson has signed for 2 years, and so has McKay.

I can't reveal any names I'm afraid. The 3 players we want, one is a South African batsman who we are trying to sign as a Kolpak player, the other is a young talented English wicket keeper, and lastly a former fox to return. Also, the last 2 depend pretty much on us getting rid of 1 member of our squad, which we are trying to do. Sorry I can't give you any names, otherwise I'll never be able to tell you anything. Should be a busy morning tomorrow at the club, several announcements to be made.

Some interesting ins and outs will be taking place at County over the winter, major overhaul planned.

Got ya. Lancashire I meant but realised they're both LCCC.

Great win for LCCC in the T20 yesterday, what a clinical performance.

Should've won that comfortably. Eckersley is not a T20 opener, so stubborn to continue playing him there. Raine not a number 3 either. Cosgrove playing and missing at Clarke deliveries, 3/4 in a row rather than taking singles, then dancing around in his wicket rather than just making good contact on the ball, ending in a comical run out! How do you lose by 8 runs only 4 wickets down? Pathetic.

Looks like we're on the end of a hammering here. Oh well, just the easy task of bowling to Brendon McCullum tomorrow.

Andrew McDonald has extended his contract by 2 years. Club in talks with Angus Robson and Ned Eckersley to extended too, both I believe, out of contract after this season.

Freckingham bowled well too, last couple of games now. Raine is a brilliant cricketer!

Boyce, Robson, Cosgrove, Eckersley, Hill, NOB, Ali/Redfern, Raine, Sykes, McKay, Shreck.

Too much pressure on McKay, Shreck and Raine, which they are dealing with really well. Not been backed up once by Jigar yet this season.
