Wow. Still can’t see how we survive. Those batting demons are in our pysche now.

It’ll be tough for sure. Played a game more than the other relegation threatened teams so we only have 2 to play, whereas they all have 3 once this round of matches is completed. And those 2 games are away to Yorkshire and Hampshire who are both down there with us. 2 wins will probably be needed, although a win and a draw with lots of bonus points might do it. We’ve been so close to beating both Somerset and Surrey in the past 3 games (the 2 best teams this season), and the fine margins in both games have seen us pick up only 8 points for a tie and a 6 run loss instead of 32 points for 2 wins.

I'm a bit more optimistic, Hampshire look like beating Worcester which is probably the best result we could hope for as it was never going to be a draw, that keeps Worcester as favourites for one of the two relegation slots even with a game in hand on us. Clearly we have to beat the Yorkies at the very least to have a chance but their form since the Championship resumed has been abysmal.
 
Still 2nd fave to drop, need a lot of rain the week we don't play to even it up.
 
Apparently we are signing Richard Gleeson from Northants. He is a decent bowler, we just need a few batsmen now!
 
They shouldn't have got to 200 with the position we had them in. We seem to always struggle to get the 10th wicket so let's hope we can finish it off soon.

My jinx worked!
 
Need to get a decent lead here,(a big ask),as for some typical reason, Hants are doing ever so well v Somerset and Worcs are doing not too bad as well v champions elect Slurrey
 
Pleasantly surprised with the current score as I`ve only just realised the Roses game started today. Oh how I miss the Granada coverage when it used to be on at 5pm back in the day.
