I got behind the Hundred and really enjoyed supporting and watching the Superchargers with my young, cricket mad son. But, as someone who was born in Sheffield, grew up in Rotherham and now lives in Hull, Sunrisers Leeds can piss off.

The writing has been on the wall for many of these establishments for some time.

The reality is very different. At worst, VAT on fees has maybe brought the closure forward by 1, maybe 2 years. We have been struggling for years, had several staffing restructures, not replaced staff who have left, let infrastructure and systems crumble and become even more expensive to repair.

A strange day at work. It's A-level results day, which usually means hustle and bustle around the place. However, we are one of those UK private schools who have closed due to "LABOUR AND VAT RA RAA RAA"

Cricket here is by far the best of the sport that I follow, followed closely by football (American), then football (soccer) - which is actually still pretty terrible on here for me at least. I think I get better coverage of tennis, which I don't actively follow πŸ˜†

A rare victory for me. I am rubbish at this but attempt it most days.

I knew what blue was about but only recognised three of the terms so had to guess.

I am so unbelievably annoyed at myself for not getting this in 2. I had the 4th letter in my first guess. I can only blame morning brain.

They new kits are pretty rubbish, but the home strip isn't quite 2013-14 levels of terrible. I quite like the colour of the away kit, but why those awful "3D" letters? #swfc

Also dropped a tricky catch fielding at short mid-wicket that was hit high, over my right shoulder to short mid-on. Finger tips on it and down. πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ

Game #2. 3rd XI Vs Gilberdyke 2nd XI.

A 30 run win where I got a second ball duck at no. 10 to a slightly suspect run-out call. Apparently I looked well in, but I forgot to ground my bat - rookies will rookie I guess.

Good news. I interviewed for a new position last Monday and got the job! I start sometime in September as I am helping the administrators deal with, amongst other things, exams results, which they have no experience with. #newJob #redundancy #jobSearch

I'm definitely not quick, so I'm not sure how much bowling I'll get. I was just happy to be able to stop a boundary or two.

My son, on the other hand, has an amazing natural talent, he could be properly quick when he's older, still only 8.

And today I played my first game. A 3 wicket win for the 3rd XI.

I fielded at square leg, didn't bowl and wasn't required to bat. We all have to start somewhere right?

Can I ask, please, why the use of #theCricket hashtag instead of just plain old #cricket?

Here's a desperate plea for anyone with any kind of contact with the #Vikings organisation. Please ask the Wilfs to have a look. Come be a hero, Zygi!! #SKOL #WAWAW #dreamer
