Leicester 257-6, 154 ahead
Glammy need 181 to win, yet to start their second innings.
Come on batsmen don't let the bowlers down
Was too scared to look after their front enders looked comfortable earlier in the day but 181 to win with a full two days to get them I didn't expect. We took the last 7 wickets for just 70 runs... been a crazy couple of days.
Normally you'd fancy us but we all know what kind of season Glam have had with the bat and as such nobody would put money on us to get them.
Time for Rudolph to show us why he is captain and bring the team home, no rush! :thumbup:
Just checked and Selman already gone :cry:
117-4
Absolutely pathetic
Even by current Cardiff standards that's a woeful display. Glam are now an absolute shambles and the so called mature players like Rudolph, Wallace, Hogan ought to hang their heads in shame.
Only Glammy could manage this!
Hahahaha...hahaha....hahahaha (nervous laughter before sitting corner sucking thumb!)
Strong words have been said over the past months in this thread but even they cannot do justice to how truly awful we are as a team right now and the manner of this defeat is quintessentially Glamorgan's.
:yikes:
To think Rudolph reckons we need another bowler when we desperately need a star overseas batsman to replace er ....Mr Rudolph.
So glad the season is over.
I hope Matt Maynard celebrates tomorrow. He is doing really well at Somerset.
Generous declaration by Middlesex they've given Yorkshire 240 to get off 40 overs :shrug:
Hope it's a draw for Maynard's sake he's doing well over in Somerset
It does yes but maybe the captains made some kind of deal so as to not end in a draw.
It looks like it could go down to the wire currently112-4... can't see it being a draw tbh but I would like Somerset to snatch it too. MM likes a championship party in Taunton
Wow, Middlesex came in for some stick after that declaration but fair play it's paid off. I don't think anyone saw this one coming 2 hours ago
Yorkshire just done a Glamorgan and lost their 6 wickets for 25 runs Middlesex are champions
Hard luck Somerset and Matty Maynard still never won it, the won't get any closer
In the end an inspired declaration. A real shame for Matt Maynard and Somerset.
That was some finish at Lords. Somewhat contrived but fair play to both teams.
Rudi's not going to do a Mowbray then

At the risk of joining the conspiracy theory group on here I just knew that they would find a way to strip Durham of their international matches and at the same time make it sound if the county should be grateful.
I wonder who may be one of the beneficiaries of the reallocation of the England matches?
On a positive point at least Glamorgan are , more or less, guaranteed to not finish bottom.
Hampshire, Durham and Glamorgan dont really want test matches, Unless its an ashes test they come with too much of a financial burden and the clubs usually make a loss on these games.
Durham will still be hosting ODIs and T20 games and that model will suit them better.
Of course we have a better chance of getting a test too.
As TOBW says, Glammy very lucky "we" helped them out as it could well have been us in Durham s position.
Regarding Rudolph, I think Mr Morris needs to say thanks for the offer Jacques but no thanks. You had a miserable season with the bat and you also seem to be lacking the necessary captaincy skills.
Go get a top bowler Hugh or preferably an all rounder with loads of caps and good leadership qualities, someone our promising youngsters to aspire to :thumbup:
Durham have been hammered. I bet they finish above us though.
As for Rudolph dear God does he have no sense of what the right thing to do is.
Morris needs to show some balls and negotiate a pay off .
Glammy to play day-night championship game

Not great about Rudolph but really no surprise. He is going to take up a space which could have been occupied by one of our young players.
A bit gutted about Wally. He is a Glamorgan legend and at one time should have been selected for England. An extremely likeable bloke always willing to chat at the T20. I shall always remember having a chat with him on a wet and miserable July evening when we played Glos in a dead T20 match. He was very approachable and I have a lovely photo of him with my lads. A top man.
I don't think it was the same match. It was rain affected and there were not many at the game!
Not great news losing one of our better bowlers in an average bunch.
More of the same then this season for Glam by the look of things and that ain't good!
Agree with the above sentiments regarding Wallace and his record for Glamorgan, though being in an under achieving team it's tough to break into the England set up.
Interesting MW has decided to call time on his career a year early and you wonder whether the seeming lack of ambition has played a part in the decision.
I think Wally knows that with Chris Cooke winning his fitness battle he won't get many first team chances. He is Glamorgan through and through and is used to the lack of ambition!!
Not too worried about Van Der Gugten just yet as he may still be fit for the start of the new season.
Was there ever any progression on the deal for Marchant de Lange? His name was touted about last month as being another of the South Africans coming over here on a Kolpak
Rudolph is still your dedicated overseas, right?
April can't come soon enough,
