Let's be honest here, county cricket would have died years ago without being propped up. I love/ed County Cricket but not at Sophia Gardens in an empty stadium. At Newport a couple of years ago it was a joy to watch at a smaller ground. And we have to remember that other countries' cricket enthusiasm is much greater than ours. We're stuck behind a paywall watching (and even worse listening to) p*ssed up England Stag Parties' dressed as Batman & Robin forcing Mexican Waves on people who just want to actually, you know, watch the game. I can't abide Sky's coverage anymore and have stopped watching on TV too.
But hey, I'm actually, going today with my wife and looking forward to it - something I haven't felt in a long time.
