Take it you have never met him. I helped organise the event at Oadby Town around 10 years ago when he done a speech one of the nicest buys you could meet..

Whats wrong with LeTissier one of the few brave enough to speak his mind. If you don't agree with his views fair enough many people do

Yep Higgins a fantastic cricketer yet I doubt he will ever get anywhere near the England side

Class from Handscomb again really nice bloke as well btw.. Interesting to see that Middlesex haven't got any overseas players this season which is a gamble but they still look a strong side

Yes but the Leicester part is in name only does anyone really think its anything to do with the Foxes

While I'm on a rant about Jarvis also hugely dissapointing that we have missed out on a Woman's international this year while Derby and Northants get games. Well aware they are poorly attended but the club makes a few thousand from the ECB from hosting these matches. We haven't even got an England under 19s match. Considering Jarvis likes to take the credit when we get to host these fixtures he must be to blame when we miss out on these matches.

Jarvis is a director of Trent Rockets and attends every home match so he's very much a fan of the 100 despite him saying otherwise .

Such sad news seems to be happening more and more sadly one of my neighbours son also passed away suddenly last week who was 24

Also played against Bolton in a cup game

Well the club lost £440k last year and according to Jarvis we would have made a profit if it wasn't cancelled..Of course he's talking BS but they would have been paid a few grand for hosting the event

How can they when they have Mulder already signed up?

Scott Burnside never made a first team appearance but he was named in the programme to play against Sunderland in the final match of 1983/84.Wonder if that's the only time someone's been named to play in the programme who's never played a game

Incredible to think that Norman Leet managed 22 matches he was sub for Viking Tun a Sunday morning side 2 years after leaving Leicester. Fair play though now a millionaire

Neil Maisey never made a first team appearance he struggled to get a game at Aylestone Park after leaving Leicester he did make the team photo for that season however

Played 3 matches

We won 6_1 that day 2 players made debuts Phil Horner who played around 12 games and Robert Alleyne don't know if that's you but while that was your only start you also made another 2 sub apperances

Tommy Williamson had the shortest carrer one sub v spurs in the last game at FS in 2002 came on in the 89 minuite doubt he even touched the ball

Just noticed that the legends tournament which got cancelled last year will be played in July at Northampton. Another big money spinner that the club misses out on

Good point the only player we will lose is Scott Currie

You could do that but it makes a mockery of the CC if you have matches being played at the same time as the 100 you only have to look at the side Essex put out at Kibworth last year imagine them fielding that side in the CC

No chance private investors would bankroll 18 counties

To be fair saw a few autographs hunters down there yesterday in the crowd of 150 that I haven't seen before maybe 20-30 who came just to see Viv and Andy

Don't disagree with you however we have always started in April and unless they reduce matches which I and many others don't want then don't really see a solution.. No chance you can fit 14 championship matches plus the other 3 comps if you start in May unless you want to play in October

Just a random thought but not spotted the Coventry fan Brian in the front row this year.He was always a fixture at the Crucible

Yep they are doing an after dinner show in Leicester tonight along with Richie Richardson and Curty Ambrose
