Newport, like West Ham, can't play at home ( but because of the pitch and not puking athletes). They couldn't have them both in the South, in case they were drawn together.
Strange he doesn't mention his wonderful day out in Blackpool, where he just happened to bump into all sorts of people. Some even involved in football.
Don't sell.
Batting first at home to Essex.
Still no Van Dijk. Sorry, Afridi.
Holland replaced by Dawson, which is quite remarkable, as according to TMS, an hour ago, he bought a drink out to Ben Stokes at Old Trafford.
I suppose he wants away but wont ask for a transfer?
He's injured and Dawson is with England. Tom Barber, opening bowler for Middlesex, was released by us last year.
That wasn't pre-season.
It was the opening game of the 07/08 season and Palace thumped us 4-1. We followed that up 2 days later by losing 2-1 at Peterborough in the League Cup.
