Salty. Our team did seem to beat the professional counties more often when it was full of amateurs than it does now it is full of contracted players.

Severe lollingtons at these shouts.

An amateur team in today's game would be lolled off the park by other sides.

Use the money to employ 8 development officers to go into schools and coach and promote cricket with assistance for and from clubs.

Cricket Scotland should do away with the Full-Time Contracts and invest the money in clubs instead.

Is Iqbal always one of the first names on the team sheet this season due to his full-time contract? His selection isn't really merited on current form, which has been poor for some time now. Guess it's a testament to the poverty of alternative options. Having said that he's not the only one having a poor season, most of his colleagues are in the same boat. Was planning to go down to Durham, a trip I've made a number of times in the past, but quite glad now that circumstances conspired to prevent me from going, sounds like it would have been a wasted journey.

Tend to agree with Scottishcricketfannomore, this has been a truly dismal period for fans of the Saltires/ Scotland cricket team. Expectations are generally modest, and with good reason, but even our habitually low expectations have proved to be far too optimistic this term. The whole Yorkshire 40 campaign has seemed half-hearted at best, thankfully it will be our last. I'd imagine few but the most resilient could bear another season like this one.

I think CS should follow suit on what Surrey has done today. Results have gone from bad to worse over the last couple of years and are now now getting embarassing. I know the players have to take blame as well but at the end of the day the buck stops with coach/manager/coaching staff as we have seen no improvement in most individual performances during the current regime.
