Good spot, KC.
When does Wimbledon start? And isn’t there soon to be some sort of footie thing in Safferland?
Just thought I would bring this to your attention – a rather excellent photo of that God amongst county cricketers – Rob Key. He’s doing some macho shooting cricket bat pose which is worth a click…
Its on the front page of the Kent County website so click here: http://ww.kentccc.com/
I’ve heard there’s an election coming up.
Look, it’s all perfectly simple. If they had played a consistent series of T20 matches, people would have found it far too easy to become interested. Similarly, if they’d have kept the County Championship matches together, there could have been some support momentum generated there too. By cleverly mixing the two up they have ensured that the game is only watched by people who have the required personal characteristics to be a cricket fan (dogged determination, a stubborn refusal to be dissuaded, nothing else to do). If you make it easy, more people might come, and where would cricket be then, eh?
The required personal characteristics to be a cricket fan = unemployment.
