  • Re: GLAMMY

    Yeah, I watched it. Bowlers done well, bats let them down as usual. Some of our shot selection is bizarre and De Lange coming at 5??

      Big test for Glamorgan's batting today, Northants bowled all out for 98 - I reckon it's 50/50 who'll win at the moment.

        Scores level with 7wkts left I'm confident, never in doubt 🤣

          David Lloyd, who missed all of our red ball games, got us off to a fast and there was sixty on the board in time at all, but it was hard work after that on a very slow pitch.

          Win our remaining three games and we could qualify!

            That was never going to happen was it , that was some hammering by Somerset yesterday! It’s so bad it doesn’t even get discussed anymore, I forgot the game was on

              Exactly the same as me, I only remembered to check the result about an hour ago - the specialist batting this season has been as weak as at any time in the twenty first century and there's plenty of other sides in contention for that title.

                Babar was dropped twice (on 10 and 66) on his way to scoring 114 not out, as Maynard (and many others previously) pointed out catches win matches - unlikely but could have been a different result

                  Yes I saw that but using a football analogy that’s like saying if they hadn’t have scored those 4 goals and we had taken a few of our half chances it could have been a different result - well no sh*t Sherlock

                  Never mind the missed catches we were bowled out for 117!

                      This Glamorgan team is the worst in a generation

                      The team of the late 70’s and 80’s was dire this one is just as bad

                      Some of the players are no more than club cricketers stealing a living as a professional sportsman

                        Sad to day I agree. Chris Cooke and David Lloyd are good enough to play in the Championship but I don’t think any other batsman is up to standard. The bowling is better and they often bat better than the specialist batters. Whoever the coach is makes no difference,

                          Totally agree mate on their day the pace bowling is not too bad, but unfortunately the batting line up is completely woeful

                          Can’t really blame the coaches they have nothing to work with

                            I've watched Glamorgan now over 6 decades and this shower of crap needs booting out pronto. Looking at their recent performances in the Bob Willis and T20 has been so disappointing when we think of the halcyon days. You hope that someone at the top recognises the problem and puts in place a remedial program although the current situation makes it very difficult with income so unpredictable.

                            A good cleanout seems appropriate but you still need to be able to field a team?

                              Well they've finally put a decent score on the board tonight 188/4. Shame to see Balbirnie get stranded on 99 but fair play, he ran a 2 at the end then that others probably wouldn't have

                                Yes, they batted well today, albeit against a Gloucestershire side that has already qualified - still not confident of the win though!

                                One plus point this season has been the bowling of young left arm spinner Prem Sisodya, it would have been nice to see how he would done in the four day game.
