To be honest his contribution has been minimal and despite his antics when bowling he is at best competent. Legends are dreams turned to reality. I never dreamed that anyone could better Glenn Turner as a batsman for the County but Hicky did.
Others with legend status at WCCC?
Dolly The Don TWG RTG Perks Tip Foster Giffy Glen T Phil Neale?

Did anyone else think that the atmosphere was utterly lacking for a 53,000 crowd?
The Stadium is clearly vast (dwarfing the old one - the top of the highest tier is level with the top of the old towers and the pitch has been lowered) but doesnt come over well on TV.

Sir
I am compelled to complain that an outbreak of ridiculous correspondence has infested the hitherto erudite scribblings within your mighty organ.
Yours formally
Maj-Gen JG Orange-Bromehead (ex Norwich Telephone Directory Engineers)
P S Your nature correspondent might like to note that whilst out with my early morning community road-marking group I am sure I heard a frog mating call. A herald of Spring if ever there was one.

Is this why the light in the Brookside toilet is never on? Isn't there an "r" missing from this sentence? Dear Lord A & E On reflection there is an "rs" missing from both the Message Board and your post Yours phonetically R Sitch (Mrs) (and before you go on "Bob" Sitch went to KSW in the 1970's - yes he really did)

Dear Lord Ealing & Acton
Given the current financial upheavals and the need for governments to find a sage saviour to replace Alan Greenspan and lead them out of the beckoning economic wilderness do you think there is any mileage in introducing the Dave Boddy Dollar as the world's currency of choice?
He has, after all, already worked one fiscal miracle in 2007...
Will you speak on this in da House?
Yours
E Aligee (Mrs)

Sir
Last night on the way down the A17 and A47 to lil old Norfolk I had a woman behind me (aged 50 ish) who clearly wanted to read my Boston v Worcester match programme she was so close, a number of jokers driving down the centre of the road overtaking throuhg oncoming traffic (yes the lanes were wide buth they were still on the wrong side of the road), somone overtaking on a blind bend and some joker plodding along at 35 in a derestricted stretch of road.
Forget smoking , eating crisps etc use the traffic cameras to record, identify and ban these inept and dangerous fiends who think they are invulnerable. Impound and sell their vehicles to pay for more traffic officers.
Your faithfully
B Williams (Mrs)

NewHighway code out and it Looks like we are going to start getting tougher on drivers who smoke behind the wheel, at long last. How anyone can consider that lighting up whilst driving can be safe is amazing. I dont take my hands off the wheel to light up whilst driving I use my feet to get a fag out the packet and strike a match. Takes a bit of contortionism in a Fiat Uno but ultimately fairly satisfying...

Only 4 teams have a prayer of winning that New Zealand Australia South Africa and France Not any more they dont! ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D The bright spot for Australia is that their flight home is half price now as they are sharing th eplane with New Zealand. Oh and by the way when did France ever win a Rugby World Cup? Yours truly Henry V

What Evesham fans?
If you like you real ale turn right out of Foregate Street station and you have a Wetherspoons - good value and then cross the road to walk down to the Lane and you will find a number of hospitable pubs with good beer - not to hard to spot.
Crossing back over you'll see the Talbot but I'd give this a miss as the beer often runs out - yes really!

More interesting if proved the point and came to the Lane for free.
Clearly he dont need the dosh so he can prove himself No1 by leading City to the Champions League in 10 years. Surely a far greater achievement than anything he has done before.
Would Drogba come as well? We could guarantee him a place on the bench at least even if he was injured!.

why not go for the " hy-viz " council vests that chelsea have adopted. at the same time we can gain more players by adding the ground stewards to the playing staff. I thought Allner proved that that approach to team stregthening didnt work!

Away kit used to be plain red. Red & black at least reflects the coat of arms of the City of Worcester (see left!).
Plain backs to the shirts are just naff.
Lets wear pink like Middlesex and PSG Rugby!

Thats not silver foil matey thats genuine holographic sticky backed plastic. No cheap replicas here. I'm stil hoping Valerie Singleton saw it on MOTD live and is, as I tap, searching for me throughout the length and breadth of Britain to give me a gold badge and tuck me in at night (I know its not her thang but hey..)
One masterpiece rests on mantlepiece in lounge for someone (bless her) to celebrate Chelseas FAC triumph over Manc U in the 2007 Final. One in the downstairs toilet to mark City's dismal exit at Basingstoke last year! Hope they swop places this yr!
Good luck in your pot hunting even if you have to bring wannabe German's to assist. Did u know Didi Hamann is a big cricket fan these days?. Get him along to MCC to officially open your run scoring account for the season!
Love and kisses.

The defence will need a good few games together to settle down before we can see if they are a good blend. So far there has been limited opportunity for them to play together due to various injuries and now suspensions. The fact we are conceding two goals a game shows is a result of the inability to put out a settled back line. It means we will start the season with a handicap in terms of points but the league is not won in August or September.
At the other end Webby's two goals in two games bodes well.

If I am right we need two more wins to clinch the title?. (or one win and two NR's).
Northants got off the mark yesterday denting Hants hopes and they are our next opponents. If we win that we must be in touching distance of our first major title for so long I cant remember.

Quite. The other Counties have been rather mean spirited and parochial in the face of the impact of a serious crisis in UK terms.
The fortunes of the County Cricket Club have to be set in context but we supporters are all simply hoping that there will be a viable Club come next April. The other counties might reflect that without opponents they have no future either.
If the moaners said "Hey ECB why dont we all lend WCCC an additional £0.5M interest free for 5 years to help them through this crisis" that would be a more appropriate response in the spirit of the game.
