Don't know what game you are at, but the one I'm watching didn't go off until the 17th over with Darwen at 81 for 3.

Coming the ground now it’s getting a bit rowdy and I’ve got my Burnley hat on

Just on my way to Old Trafford now Big Bopper. Enjoy your date with clitheroe and pass on my regards to Kurt Robinson

House 43/7 v Clitheroe. Remarkable stuff. The spinners having a field day on a pitch that looks a spinners dream.

10 wickets for Parry later then?

What’s the weather like in Burnley, on my way back now, will probably be over by the time I get back

I'd put my money on Paddy doing more damage.

Patchy clouds...some dark ones knocking about though. Doubt that will come into it though at this rate.

Still time to get in your and head to OT

Recovery...80/7

Somethingfishy · Post by **Somethingfishy** » Sun Aug 22, 2021 2:35 pm

80/8 Cottam out to a high full toss. All day a no ball.

Somethingfishy · Post by **Somethingfishy** » Sun Aug 22, 2021 3:13 pm

112 all out. Paddy Martin made 49 to rescue the innings. He may well be the key in their innings too.

Somethingfishy · Post by **Somethingfishy** » Sun Aug 22, 2021 4:36 pm

Clitheroe..29/3 from 15....could get interesting

Burnley1989 · Post by **Burnley1989** » Sun Aug 22, 2021 4:48 pm

4 down

So did Parry get his 10fer then?

3/28 off 15. Not too shabby. Wickets shared about.

Up the house.

Every bowler went for less than 2 an over.

Somethingfishy · Post by **Somethingfishy** » Sun Aug 22, 2021 7:06 pm

Clitheroe 71 all out and yet they earned a batting point. How can that be right?

Local cricketer · Post by **Local cricketer** » Sun Aug 22, 2021 7:09 pm

Great win for the house

Batting - Points will be awarded for getting within so many runs of the first
innings total as follows:-
50 1 Point
40 2 Points
30 3 Points
20 4 Points
10 5 Points

Just seems odd that a very poor batting performance gets rewarded with a point just because our total was so low. There should be a lower ceiling before points are awarded..100 perhaps.

Rammy beat Walsden

Somethingfishy · Post by **Somethingfishy** » Sun Aug 22, 2021 7:43 pm

Looking at the fixtures remaining you would have to say Darwen are the favourites now.

Dressinggown · Post by **Dressinggown** » Sun Aug 22, 2021 9:21 pm

Clitheroe will be sick of the sight of Lowerhouse this season.

I think we won the league fixture at their place.

Then was the cup final.

Today saw them grab defeat from the jaws of victory after having the House at 44-7 in the first innings, thus ending their title hopes.

On a similar note, Great Harwood beat East Lancs today and claimed 10 points, but EL got 7! I'm not averse to the incentive of bonus points per se, but the difference between wining and losing probably should be greater (imo)

Hopey · Post by **Hopey** » Mon Aug 23, 2021 9:07 am

I like our bonus points system - gives the team that is probably going to lose a reason to fight to the death - certainly makes the difference at the end of the season.

I got told a comment he said last week

“Even if Lowerhouse win, I’ve still won more Worseley cups than they have in their history”
