I'm saying nowt............ except ****ers!!
BTW - I remember once playing a Derbyshire Midweek 20 over thrash League game and we batted first and were convinced we would win after scoring 320 odd IIRC. We lost on the last ball of the last over....... Great game.
Aye but William Crassus kicked the Scotch arses a few months later at Northallerton - will Morgan's men get a similar chance? Ah, the good old days of the Anarchy.
i think the reference was mostly drawn, though, since both the battle of Clitheroe and the cricket took place on 10 June, albeit 880 years apart.
Come to think of it, it wasn't really on the same day due the the loss of 10 days in the switch of calendars in 1582, which, for the trivia buffs amongst you, was the last year when there was a 30th February.
PPS for the even bigger trivia buffs out there, this loss of 10 days is why the tax year ends on 5 April, rather than the traditional quarter day (Lady Day) of 25 March which was the previous fiscal year end
Yes but this Scotland victory was a lot easier!
