Got to bat out tomorrow.
Yes your right 64, we ought to beat Warwicks and when we play Essex, they'll already have won the championship.
Tomorrow is vital we pinch a draw.
Lets hope the Essex boys are still suffering from hangovers after celebrating their champion status & Warwickshire are totally depressed :wink:

Middlesex gain a batting bonus point :(

Yorkshire 100 for 1 still 98 runs behind Surrey. Runs not important anymore Yorks just need to stay at the crease to earn a draw.

Somerset on their way to a victory

Well that was a close shave as I thought it might be with the majority of gutless players masquerading as a Yorkshire team these days

We required 175 to win against the bottom team in the league. At one stage we were 96 for 7

Thank god for Patto & the 40 extras to get us home with two wickets to spare :shock:

Incredibly that wins takes Yorks up to 3rd & we just maybe safe from relegation

Gale has to go !

I think Yorkshire are safe from relegation after the bonus points gained on the first day of the last round of matches in the county championship

One of three Somerset, Hampshire or Middlesex to go down with Warwickshire

On an international note Ben Stokes was arrested early hours of Monday morning. Kept in all night and then released without charge whilst the police investigation gets under way. He wont be playing tomorrow in the one day international, neither will Alex Hales as he has voluntarily gone to Bristol to give evidence as they were both out nightclubbing together. Looks like Stokes could be (allegedly) charged with actual bodily harm.

Great/decent players don't necessarily make good managers/coaches

Bobby Charlton was a England great however very poor when he went into football management

Haighy and 64, who would be your choice of coach for next season? I ask, because as a Yorkshire lass who loves all things Yorkshire, I'm not clued up enough in Yorkshire cricket to have any idea. I love watching Yorkshire play cricket, but not knowledgeable enough I'm afraid.
