    Sad to see Lloyd go. Good player who scores at a good clip. Shame that his final season with us has been injury plagued aswell.

    Who are the better recent performers in their sports do we think - Glamorgan CCC or Cardiff City?
    Both have clearly disappointed their followers over the last few years.

    See all the quarter final winners were from the southern group

    Yes. Perhaps some consolation for perceived failures. We really should have won a few more though from positions we had in games.

    Glamorgan - I don't think they've done badly in recent years given the size of club they are.

    Good point which outs our T20 campaign into some sort of context - we also had an awful lot of injuries.

    I see that Michael Neser has been released from the Ashes squad, and has been named in the Glamorgan squad for the 4 day game this week.

    I see the Aussies have released Michael Neser to play against Leicester tomorrow

    Re: GLAMMY

    Good news about Neser, but looking at the forecast, he’s going to be spending most of the time looking out from the dressing room at the covers being pushed on and off the wicket - the fourth day looks okay, but the first three don’t.

    Feel a bit sorry for Ingram getting dropped, he's been great again this year. But a gutsy and correct decision to play swepson and Neser as the 2 overseas I think. Bowling does need more strengthening than the batting. What's the weather like in Cardiff at the moment?

    Glamorgan’s the only game not started yet today - if the BBC forecast proves right, it could be a case of no play today.

    Our batting bonus points suggest otherwise

    Looks like there might be a start soon, but, unfortunately, Leicestershire have won the toss and stuck us in - David Lloyd is back to open.

    They’re keeping us on tenterhooks about that because there’s no sign of any play yet.

    Tender-pins, surely!

    Re: GLAMMY

    We’ll have to stay on tenderpins for another seventeen hours or so - no play today.

    Re: GLAMMY

    Well, the umpires got as far as starting to walk out to the middle to start the game when the rain came down - still don’t know what colour the stumps are.

    LGBTender-pins more like.

    Re: GLAMMY

    On for five balls, then off again- 0 for 0 and the stumps are blue.

    Re: GLAMMY

    Glamorgan 54-1 and, after losing almost two days to the weather, every one marches off in bright sunshine at 6.30 - cricket’s its own worst enemy at times.

    Can we have more rain please.

    58-4

    Re: GLAMMY

    93-7 now. Could lose it in 2 days.

    Re: GLAMMY

    Could Leicestershire declare their first innings on 0/0, bowl at us again, then have a decent target to chase tomorrow?
