Just seen that on Lancs website. Thought I was seeing things at first.

Why have no Yorkies posted on this thread today?





Lancs 106-0 at close of play with Chorley boy Tom Smith following up his 6-46 with 40 NO.

Absolutely shambolic, but not unexpected.

Have decided against going today due to the forecast, wouldn't be that surprised to see a result tomorrow though if the weather behaves.

Lancs may force one, or at least try to. Can see us declaring at 400 and have a day trying to skittle Yorks again.

Still, the weather has probably settled this, but for once Lancs look set for maximum batting points, finally!

When was the last time Lancs scored that many in a full match, never mind two innings?!

We're in a great position now for tomorrow... Let's skittle the b*stards.

Not sure why Lancs waited so long to declare, I'd have come off as soon as the last bonus point was reached (shocking captaincy from McGrath helping you along the way with that).

Hopefully it will rain, but the disinterested bunch supposedly representing Yorkshire don't deserve to be saved, everytime I have seen them this season they've looked half-assed, and it was particularly galling to hear Lancashire fans saying the same things about us as we toiled.

Bit better today - good knocks this morning from Gale (second 50 of the game) and Rudolph.

Usual dismal failure from the skipper yesterday, surprise surprise.

Let's just get relegation confirmed so we can start hacking away the dead wood.

Reporting in from the Long Room at Old Trafford. This is grim. Yorkshire couldn't have done the decent thing and rolled over, could they? Gits.

Lancs can't even beat a shockingly bad Yorkshire side, O dear

Kent beat Derbyshire by three wickets and also Martin van Jaarsveld has signed a contract extension that will see him stay at Canterbury until 2012

Durham win again so it looks like you can give them the title again now.Next year will be Lancs year I can feel it

59 years and counting

Shame about so much play being lost at Old Trafford, our plan was obviously to set Lancashire a target and watch their frail batting crumble under the barrage of our numerous England international bowlers

Durham's title anyway, even if they go on a shocking run.

The rest are just keeping away from 8th.

Ahem, as much as I hate to add years on, don't be counting that shared nonsense. We bloody don't.

Dull, dull, dull. The moaning from the Long Room was above normal standards, and that's saying something for in there. Mind you, having the Test Match on in the bar behind didn't help matters on that front.

Another excellent one day performance from Lancs last night with Kyle Hogg, Stephen Parry and Tom Smith all impressing, good signs for the future...and with the weather being like it is it could be enough to get us top spot in the 2nd Division already!!

And in the Kent v Middlesex game thats started today, there's been 4 run outs out of the 12 wickets to fall so far

what the frig's going on???

As I predicted in work, Yorkshire managed to show us once again how to throw away the game last night. It was a bit tighter than normal, but Bresnan running the wrong way towards the ball in the final over ensured Hampshire got home in the end.

That was the second time he'd done it in the match - the first time led IMO to the ball being changed, and by the second time it had discoloured so badly again the fielders were all having trouble picking it out (see also Gale's dropped catch).

Thought Rudolph panicked in the last ten overs, didn't have the confidence to bowl Wainwright out who had been excellent and got left with 3 unused overs.

On the plus side the young players like Gale, Lyth, Wainwright and Rashid showed some real guts for the fight against probably the best one day side in the country at the minute. Particularly enjoyed Lyth giving the fans behind him plenty back after the run out.



Still, good to see the soon to be ex captain finding the time to have a laugh and a joke on the balcony while the game was slipping away...

Once again it looks like the 1st day rain will have stopped Lancs getting a win

At least one shining light, finally we're racking up scores and not relying on the bowlers to save our skins.

Keedy and Parry will skittle them today

Lancs declare at 568/5, with a lead of 231, and also annoys Hampshire who miss out on a bonus point....saying that, the 130 over cut off happened long ago



Come on Lancs, two sessions to skittle them, and Durham will start getting worried I tells thee!

too many convicts in county cricket . have a cup of tea

120 overs.



And win this and the title's nailed on. Again.

Kent beat Middlesex by 12-run Pro40 Division Two
