McIlroy is a b1oody joke and boom boom another dropped catch.
We've been all over them. Yet they're going to get 200. Absolutely calamitous in terms of fielding and pathetic rank deliveries from mcillroy. Shocking from Glamorgan

bet we don't get to 120
Unfortunately I agree. Judging by the 1st innings. I'm predicting Spencer Johnson and his one delivery will see us bamboozle ourselves and be out for about that. Hopefully they prove us wrong. We've got a long and talented batting lineup, if we go out and attack we should do this Surrey team

I feel like as a team we did enough to win that . Really comes down to 3 players and the coach for me . Unfortunately we had the guaranteed toxic performance from northeast, innings of 9/10 not as bad as normal admittedly, but backed it up with a shocking display in the field. Jamie mcillroy fell apart, can't quite understand what happened to him. Then Ingram played a northeast innings to completely destroy us. Coach gave us 4 bowling options, in a move reminiscent of mark alleyne.
But some great performances around that rubbish. I actually think we can have a good season in the t20
Really let them off the hook. Fielding was poor, despite doing well in restricting them to singles on a few occasions. Too many bad balls punished. I noted Surrey didn’t drop one opportunity and I can’t even recall a no ball or wide. That was the difference. Marnus/Ingram/Cooke spell was enjoyable.

Reason: Typo
Fear McIlroy has the yips... his action's all gone. Could take a while to get back, having played well last year.
You can understand not being able to match the bigger counties on the batting/bowling front, but there's no excuse not to match them on the fielding front - that was beyond pathetic.
Frustrating defeat yesterday. We were competitive throughout and even with the selection backfiring, the dropped catches and Ingram struggling to get going we still only lost by 19 runs so positives to take from it. I've literally no idea where posters were seeing 'rabbits in the headlights', 'way off the mark', 'totally outplayed', 'bloody joke', 'comedy show', 'shambles', toxic', 'rubbish', 'beyond pathetic' etc. Maybe they think we need the City match thread vibe on here? I'd beg to differ but each to their own, I guess.
Back in action at home against Sussex tomorrow at 2.30, hopefully we can hold our catches and get a win.

I was watching the Welsh women’s game, so saw very little of Glamorgan and therefore only have the scorecard to go by. On the face of it, they gave what is, player for player, the best county team in the country a decent enough game. We’re Glamorgan, traditionally one of the weaker counties, and we’re really missing Neser and haven’t adequately replaced Hogan yet - we had a combination of Labuschagne and Bevan as our fifth bowler and, just as in the four day game, the side looks a specialist bowler short.
The comments reflected the frustration people felt having witnessed probably the worst fielding display by a Glamorgan team in many years. Felt like a very good opportunity lost to beat a very good side.
Hoping for a decent crowd today given the weather - should be good down there.
