and thanks for the report from me. I note that Lancs have declined to open up any more of the ground other than part of Stand A they unlocked on Tuesday...

Thanks John W for putting the questions on behalf of many of us. Can't really expect Chilton to say much different, but by saying CDG has a great attitude, he's implying that Balderson doesn't. If players are going to other clubs because of their coaching staff, perhaps Chilton should be looking at our coaching staff. Bad news for Morley, who's looked quite promising, if they're going for a finger-spinning batsman. I don't hold out much hope over the 'investigation', but thanks for trying John.

Only seen three days this season one at Southport two at Blackpool, the fact you are basically treated like a Terrorist is trying to gt into the ground annoys me, in my late 60's nd having bags searched just in case you have the temerity of not wanting to pay the extortiant beer prices that we get, the management don't care simple as that concerts great Lancs members bad basically the reason I stopped going also you have had a test ground which has turned into a Corporate palace and when the temporary stand isn't up you get a great view of the car park you can't use. The first game after the lockdown I was requested to show if I had brought a mask with me, thought about giving a two word reply but you get mey drift. It is just an extremely unpleasntexperience getting through the Stasi to watch a game of cricket

Meanwhile elsewhere Essex have won their 5th CC game in a row and are now perhaps the only challengers to Surrey as Warks lose to Middlesex..

Could have done with winning this seeing middlesex won. Looks like to win we will need to get enough to only bat once.

Bailey ahead of Balderson I can understand as they need to crash it around a bit tonight but why ahead of Hartley?

I would declare overnight and put them under pressure. They are bottom for a reason and we can't lose from here so why not? Even if they get ahead it wouldn't be enough to worry about.

Anything of interest on the players/recruitment side of things at the forum? Croft will not feature, he will work alongside the coaching team. Surprised and disappointed by this. He played in every game last season and averaged 64. Also I was hoping he would get 20,000 Lancashire runs before calling it a day.
