OSCC, 180-6, lost to Luton Town & Indians, 240-9, by 60 runs On a day where Shane Jones took a hat trick, two Offley batsmen walked off at the end with unbeaten half-centuries and Jamie Cummins sustained a torn hamstring that is certain to make him a slow-moving favourite among Tenerife's looky-looky men when he arrives on Wednesday (Jamie will be back on Sunday with his hair in cornrows, several Rolexes and a dozen pairs of sunglasses), there really is only one place to start. With Kaiz Ul-Haq's hat. Sporting a fantastic piece of millinery that made him look like a cross between Audery Hepburn and a slightly effete Indiana Jones and is available exclusively from Young Man at Roger's  as part of their Junior Arms Dealer Collection , Kaiz brought a touch of international panache to proceedings. Relegation-threatened Offley arrived at Potton to take on table-topping Luton and promptly lost the toss consigning them to an afternoon chasing leather in the sunshine. Had Cum...

   OSCC, 128 all out, lost to CKCC (Cheating Kunts Cricket Club), 129-9, by one wicket Kicked a chair over. Kicked a locker in. Kicked two stumps out of the ground after bowling some kunt who didn't walk and let some other kunt give him not out. So that was my day. In fairness the first two incidents were entirely my own fault for edging a short wide one but the third one..... Marc Ward's ten men (Thank you very much ECB for your wanky rules) started the day by waiting around for CCCC to turn up, the game not getting under way until 1.30. Highly ironic that you have these shitcock rules when you knowingly rig the fixture list in the T20 Blast and the Championship First Division. Ward won the toss and elected to bat first, the captain walking out to open the batting with Richie Barker. The Tango & Fanta combination put on 31 for the first wicket before Ward elected not to play a shot to a rapidly dipping  full toss and was bowled. Moments later Barker was following him...

  Anyone who has ever had any dealings with the ECB will know that the initials stand for Exceptionally Cuntish Bellends. I know whereof I speak. Been there, done that, got the medals and the T-shirt. At the highest level they get rewarded for their incompetence and intransigence with huge amounts of money and an excellent benefits package, safe in the knowledge that when they do finally produce one big fuck up too many they will be granted a handsome severance package. However, further down the level one encounters emotionally stunted individuals who get their jollies from being as unhelpful as possible. These are the volunteers who have a duty, a calling to suck the joy out of cricket. They would never admit it but these are the people who would happily build sewage works on traditional village cricket grounds and get just a little bit moist when they have an application from a town club to field a 16th XI in the league. Honest incompetence doesn't come into it for these people w...

  OSCC, 135 all out, lost to Abbots Langley, 231-9, by 96 runs On a humid afternoon ten-man Offley went down to an emphatic defeat at the hands of The Biggest Cock in Hertfordshire. Judging by his accent The Biggest Cock in Hertfordshire (TBCH) had been brought up on the other side of the world and got his childhood kicks driving through Soweto looking for homeless children to burn. TBCH celebrated every wicket he took with the type of delighted yells and fist pumps that the Voortrekkers used when pouring lead into the Zulus at Blood River. Unfortunately he did quite a bit of celebrating and then having behaved like a complete cunt in the finest South African tradition (not like anything our South African contingent would ever think of doing - splendid chaps those) earnestly said he hoped there would be no bad blood as that was the last thing he'd want.... The fact that TBCH spent almost his entire day fielding at fine leg or long off suggests he was one of those individuals that y...

It would be easy to write the usual stuff after a hectic three games in four days that have seen us fight our way through to another trip to finals day, storm up to fourth in the Herts League and move ever closer to the drop in the Beds, but truth be told after playing five games in nine days it hurts to type and I really can't be arsed. It wouldn't be fair to highlight Jamie's misadventures of the past few days which have seen him stung by a wasp, get out-sprinted by Roger before falling over and punching the ball for four (Roger had it covered Jamie, just like he told you - the moral of the story being you should always Rely on Roger...), fail to take a wicket in two fruitless spells and then fall down while bottling attempting a catch and having to watch and wave as it bounced over his head for a boundary while he was on the ground. If he'd been any more challenged in that moment he'd have qualified for PIP payments on the spot. These escapades and many more wil...
