NatWest T20 Blast FL 2014

[Durhamfootman]

Top 3 players all have Jeetan Patel, so ian can't win. GG's other player is the big flop, and I don't think he'll still be around for finals day (doubtless powelly will advise, if I'm wrong)

Hard to see how this FL can be anything other than a victory for bn

you should have had more faith, old chap!

Do I not keep Shah?

In the battle for 13th place.

I would like to feel sorry for SP but considering I scratched Vince from my team and replaced him with Maxwell based upon listening to SP glorify Maxwell as the greatest T20 player since Noah, I can't.

From now on I'm listening to no one and picking my team by that age old method that involves a blindfold and a pin.

I fear that over before the rain at OT yesterday has cost me dear

if he plays, yes. tbh, I'd forgotten about him

Oh.

[Durhamfootman]

Just noticed that Finals day is on Saturday

Unfortunately, I'll be at the Patterdale hotel this weekend, so I won't be able to complete this FL until my return, on Monday.

Please accept my apologies for such a shoddy disregard for this FL when booking my hols. Totally unacceptable!

Being unable to live with this shame, I humbly request permission to commit seppuku the moment the league is complete and a winner has been announced.

(I've been reading shogun.... can you tell?)

[Durhamfootman]

harsh but fair, I think

[ianp1970]

I'm off to Finals day (a first for me ) where I expect to be wrapped up like an Arctic banana - but surely the Lake District will not be opening the hot tubs and saunas?

Enjoy DFM
