@Michael: thanks so much for a very generous offer, but be assured our current state of financial embarrassment is a temporary issue. Our wonderful partners at ABN AMRO's support of Dutch cricket is not restricted to the KNCB! I hope we can keep improving our service and live up to the high standards Rod maintained during his tenure, and the repay the faith of our (rightly demanding) readers.
@Lex: Criticism always welcome, keeps us on our toes!

@Lex
I totally agree with you, why should anyone involved in cricket in the Netherlands NOT want to have their views aired and that everyone know who they are?

Alle Topklasseclubs zullen een vuist moeten maken tegenover Bondscoach Drinnen. Hij dwarsboomt de nationale kompetitie, de bakermat van het Nederlandse cricket. Bukhari en van Mekeren mogen niet voor hun club spelen uit angst dat ze niet fit zijn voor internationale competities . Hoe bedenk je het?

One should admire and thank people like Bertus who invests time in reporting for us, even though he gets hardly any money for it.
Remember we're talking here about the Netherlands' only cricket 'magazine,' aren't we? Shame, but the weekly print one, to which I contributed con amore like others, died in obscurity several years ago.
As far as I'm concerned, Bertus c.s. definitely deserve some form of remuneration. Which would surely serve as an incentive to put even more effort into CricketEurope's good work.
Let's call it a Cricket Crowd Funding Action which is needed now, reminiscent of the effort that was organised by former editor Rod Lyall several years ago. The term Crowd Funding hadn't been invented then ;-)
What sum Rod in the end collected was never disclosed, but I hope it helped to make his efforts worthwhile at the time.
So Bertus, find a way of discretely mailing me your bank account number and I shall be happy to transmit a financial contribution. And I surely hope others follow! To get the scores right and up to date over the week-end, the match reporting and handling the Forum entries etcetera, and all in English, is a major effort. So let's help fund it and thus help improve it, instead of complain...

@Lex: The forum is currently besieged by trolls and technical issues -we're working on it. As to the missing update on the Noord-Zuid game, fair comment, things haven't been running so smoothly here of late. We're doing our best -but we're all new to the job and operating on a budget of precisely nothing at the moment. Occasional slip-ups happen I'm afraid. That said, at least we're still better than the competition. (in that our match reports tend to be written by someone who saw the game, knows how many matches we've won and lost and has a moderate command of English: http://www.espncricinfo.com/county-cricket-2013/content/story/638882.html)
@Ruud: I'd say there's a case for including Dom for his batting -given that he's averaging at 75 in the YB40s for us at the moment. Failing that, I guess good looks and charm?
