Whilst England are taking a well earned rest after today's efforts , I wondered what cricket aficionados on brfcs feel about the expansion of the Lancashire League and the addition of Darwen, Clitheroe and Great Harwood to the established 14 .

Personally I think it'll add a bit more interest to the League and the new derbies such as Rishton v Great Harwood and Darwen v East Lancs are quite mouth watering !

I've been hoping that Darwen would join the Lancashire League for many years now. Look forward to the East Lancs v Darwen games

Ah, I've just spoken to an ex colleague of mine who was on the books of Dundee United while Don worked in that city as he lives in Carluke and works for the local council. It almost certainly was Don I saw as he moved up there about 4 or 5 years ago apparently.

I'm annoyed with myself now for not speaking to him as I doubt I'll ever bump into him again as it isn't a town I go to very often.

One of my favourite seasons watching Rovers was the 23 game unbeaten run in 1987/8, not to mention the Full Members Cup final!

...8 years ago.

This guy's hair was pure white but yeah I do think it was him Stu. Cheers

Saw an old bloke in Tescos in Carluke (Scotland) the other day and I thought "Where do i know him from?".

I used to work for the local housing association in the next town, Wishaw, and assumed it was one of my ex tenants, but I couldn't put a name to the face.

It has literally just dawned on me over a week later who - I think - it was. None other than Don Mackay!! Does anybody know whether he has moved back to Scotland? The more I recall the guy the more convinced I am that it was him. He has silver hair now. I thought he was an excellent manager for us.

Disclaimer:

This post is not in support of Owen Coyle or Venkys, nor is it an endorsement that the team has been anything other than mediocre for a long time now.......

....however, writing off games before they have even been played and making predictions in this division is foolhardy. With the possible exception of Newcastle and on their day Norwich, there are no amazing, stand-out teams in the championship and - bad as we are - I cannot honestly say that there won't be three worse ones come May.

Having said that, even if we don't get relegated this season it is only a matter of time before we do, with these owners and this manager.

Congratulations to Bangladesh. Two excellent test matches and a 1-1 draw is probably fair enough. I fear for England in india though!
