I'm not sure about starting with tadic.

As long as this very silly man says we will lose I am happy - he is so often wrong.

I have a lot of time for him but he does tend to make too many costly mistakes. If he can concentrate for the whole game and not give the ball away then he could become a very good player for us.

255 for 8 against Warwickshire - could have been a lot worse - but why are our batsmen so poor this season?

He doesn't score nearly enough goals.

Poor second half - lost control in midfield and Long and Pelle don't seem to work well together. Still 3-0 is a good result. Cedric looked good in the first half.

Mayuka never quite cut the mustard did he?

Now I start to see why they decided to bring Dawson back!

So we go marching on to the next round!! Maybe the next 7 weeks will be a bit better?

Well we won - amazingly! Good bowling by our team. Maybe this is the turning point?!

All very encouraging.

It never rains but it pours - after that collapse we will be lucky to win tonight and that will be us out of the T20 competition.

WE managed to get a draw aided by the rain - well done McManus and well done Crane and the others who contributed something..

62 for 5 - can rain save us? They really are awful this season - there is something wrong with the coaching I fear.

Yoshida is adequate cover but he does make mistakes which are sometimes critical. He is not a top-drawer CB.

They finished 171 ahead with 9 wickets standing - looks like a draw or possibly a defeat given how brittle our batting has been.

272 for 6 after 101 - a better total but slow going.

Are we getting VVD?

Carberry has scored over 50 not out so that is something to celebrate.

I am surprised about this if it's true. He did not impress last season - except for Newcastle, he contributed little. If he's not good enough for Werder Bremen then surely he is not good enough for us.

359 for 6 at 12.25 pm.

I don't think Bell justifies his selection at present - watching him today was painful - he would have done better to try to get some runs.

Too many dropped catches today by the sound of it. One certainly gets the impression that there is something not quite right within the club.

A bit of a rout.

I like the look of this!
