Great to see Lancashire finally win the County league!!!
Also nice to see Yorkshire relegated... Makes trips to the in laws more enjoyable!!
Hope it encourages more people down to Old Trafford "The home of Lancashire cricket" now..
I might even bob over to Merseyside next season, not seen the Liverpool ground..

Certainly a good year for us Lancastrians with Cricket.. Just a shame about the twenty20 day!
Nice living amongst it all! SWIE, hope you're feeling the love with Granada!!

Good thread Mallorca.
Well done Lancs.
When I was a teenager, I used to play for Worsley CC and when I made the senior team, I opened the bat with players like Andy Hayhurst & Graham Fowler.
We were in the Lancashire Combination League and as a 17 year old, I had to face Malcome Marshall with the new ball. Terrifying!
Got 3 boundaries off him tho', & scored 59 and we won.
Had to jack it in when I went to Uni, but ended up on the Uni team playing at the Bradford Park Avenue.
Never quite hit my younger heights, I think the beer kicked in.

Tut someone has given me a 1star...
They must be a Yorkshireman..
Or from a town often confused with being in Yorkshire.

M.T. It-s a lifeline ,
Seriously, We watch it most evenings, it does keep us in touch. I wouldn't want to go back, except for visiting family and friends but it's good to keep in touch.
Have a great holiday. Some of my relatives arte in Mallorca as I speak.

Actually, I can understand my lads confusion.... Some clubs do share the same town post code..

Can't think who you mean
Know what you mean about 20/20 day, gutting that, terrible last over. We were having a sing-off against some Bolton fans a few rows behind us. Ended though when an impressively game Yorkshireman in front kept standing up to receive some coordinated abuse.

Hi M.T. Not sure where they are but they come home today, Saturday. I don't suppose they will be happy.
It's my wife's sister, her husband, their daughter and her hubby.
They come over here about three times a year but are having a change. I love Mallorca, been there seven times including my honeymoon, 43 years ago. We went to Alcudia when there was only two small hotels and the new one on the beach where we stayed. Absolute bliss. I know it's changed an awful lot since then.
