But that's to be expected as we're at a different point in pre-season. Not sure why its taking people by surprise.

Are people really getting worked up over a few standard PR comments? Was there an expectation that Robin's was coming to come out swinging having a go at Forest or that Lincoln were going to say they can't believe he signed for them instead of us and it was a stupid decision?

If someone has to come in and bat for a short amount of time at the end of the day they sometimes send in a non-batsmen whose job it is to just stay in until close of play. The idea is to not risk one of your main batters and have them ready to go the next day.

Not deflated, can't wait for 3pm tomorrow.

Good luck to him. Will be interesting to see if he kicks on. Could just as easily be another Thomas or Stevenson as he could be the next Maddison. Facts are going to stop people raging at SISU and demanding a huge signing to replace someone who wasn't a regular in our starting lineup and has...

Fair enough. Personally I see little point in the club putting out statements every few weeks saying nothing has changed when nobody is listening to what they are saying and applying pressure to the other sides involved. You don't need the club to release a statement to know what the response...

But it doesn't create an us vs them mentality. If it did you'd have the trust, telegraph and CWR hammering Wasps and the council. In reality they all appear terrified of upsetting them. All that would happen is the club would report nothing has changed and there would be hundreds of abusive...

Being realistic what are you expecting them to say? Wasps are making unreasonable demands so the route back to the Ricoh is blocked by them - nothing the club can do about that. As for a new ground, if you believe there is any chance of that ever materialising, we were told they'd made...

Just before anyone panics and thinks you have to make it to the Butts today you can also sort it out at St Andrews tomorrow: That's purely for collections and queries so you won't be queuing with people trying to buy tickets.

I see people saying this whenever we sell a player but surely if most deals are structured the same way then the same will apply to any players coming in.

You do wonder how much potential revenue they are throwing away. Once you've pushed people to use free streams by not making what they want available to them through legal channels its hard to turn around when they inevitably make the decision to allow UK purchases. They only need to look at...

Bit of a novelty factor maybe? Could see that if maybe we were there for a year or two while a new ground was being built but not really in these circumstances. The only potential benefit I can see is that the pitch hopefully won't be as bad as the Ricoh but it will take a lot more than that...

That's a hell of an innings from Smith in any circumstances but first test back and with wickets tumbling at the other end makes it even more impressive.

Let them off the hook massively here. No way they should be reaching 200 when they were 122-8.

But clearly no other team buys or sells anyone once the first ball of the season has been kicked - its only us.

Wasn't expecting this. Even without getting Smith out they should be all out for a very low total.

Same thing that happens every season to every lower league team. Why is there an expectation that we should be able to go out and sign whoever we like but have no players leave?

Instead of parking at the Ricoh all day might be easier to get a bus into town and get the coach from there. Pretty much every route in the city goes to Pool Meadow doesn't it?

This is the main thing for me. A stunning lack of consistency. You can debate the effectiveness of a protest against any of the parties involved. Personally I would suggest Wasps would be more sensitive to a large protest and accompanying media coverage than SISU would be over a coach load of...

The trust are hardly in a position to take the piss out of protests that thousands of people don’t turn up to.
