Their fielders flying around everywhere that was an insane catch. -

We we will need over 200 to defend against this fookin all star team. Just shows you what we are up against, hardly a level playing field is it. We've made a good start so hopefully we get a good total. -

Excellent win. If you think, we had a few years where we didn't win a game in div 2, so to win by an innings in div 1 is not be sneezed at. It's a shame though we won't have Rehan for long, it's clear England have no spin options which stand out and none of them can score first class hundreds so he's bound to get picked soon. Imagine him batting at 8 with Archer, Tongue, Stokes and Atkinson the seamers. Alex Green is raw but looks to have a lot of talent, and the catching was brilliant, that Cox catch from the inside edge and the catch at leg slip last night were top class. -

Why didn't they hit out a bit for that last batting point? And now they've collapsed anyway. Seems odd. I should hope our lead is big enough though and hopefully we can get a few wickets this evening. -

Excellent fighting spirit, which has been there in the last few Blast games to get us some wins, but we are just not good enough in div 1. Jordan Cox has been the difference in this game, and in other games one disastrous collapse or spell has cost us. We are just short of enough quality with bat or ball but need to keep fighting and try and get some success in the one day game and bounce back again next year. -

How are they going to be knackered? We were bowled out in 60 overs, with over 20 overs of spin used. And they will have a nice rest tonight and know that unless we score 400 plus ( incredibly unlikely) they have won the game. -

Yet another crushing loss. I hope they learn from this season and build a side capable of getting back up next season and that can actually stay up. -

Sorry, I know he's a good player but 100 off 73 balls on an iffy pitch with a wet outfield is poor bowling. -

Just look at the side we've put out, it's a div 2 side. Signings like Weatherald and Helm were needed throughout the team. A few absentees (they knew Rehan and Holland would be out for spells) and the team looks shocking. Jordan Cox having a party. -
Absolutely criminal from the Spurs to go for 8 straight 3s when they had a 25 point lead, didn't manage the clock and let Knicks come back. Once it was single digits I had a feeling, incredible comeback but very poor from SA.

No I'm buzzing mate, brilliant win. I still don't know how we defended 147 when they were going at ten an over but we got Bairstow out just in time I think. Rehan makes a massive difference with his bowling, and no Mike or Hull meant the bowling unit was tighter. It's great we have won 3 in a row and hope we can take this form into the C and get a win v Essex. -

Literally 7-3 off last 3 overs. Will do well to make 150. -
League One - Who manages us?
James and his giant peach replied to Muzzy_no7's topic in Leicester City Forum
One thing is for sure, we do not want another miserable season and if it is Martin we have to get behind him, as booing and having a go before a ball is kicked won't help at all. If we win the first two games 3-0 he will be a god -
Well it made sense seeing as they said everyone that renewed could apply for 2 more season tickets. That implied they hadn't sold many.
-
I'm shocked. My contact at the club said less than half (around 11k) had renewed, meaning suddenly 12k new fans have bought STs for league one?? His info must be wrong surely the club wouldn't lie, they're all full of such upstanding people......

You'll never sing that -
Depends how you look at things. It's exciting in that there will be a result and it's a real test of batting skill. It's also more exciting than both teams scoring 500. But I agree it's a pitch that is clearly too bowler friendly. It has to be said though that bowling on both sides has been brilliant.
