The maths never stacked up. At Tea with Lehmann & Plunkett at it. By the close, Yorkshire might have been 120 ahead. That might have spiced things up a bit. But, it's the maths.
Wickets tumbled straight after Tea. Ugly of the day award goes to a brainless shot by Rashid. Danced down to the spinner. But wasn't looking to play an aggressive shot. Danced down to defend. Yes, that's right. Didn't get there. Didn't get anything on it. Walked past a straight 'un. Stumped by Miles.
Cor Blimey. Then we needed the maths at Retford. To count the racked up 12 goals. Partly, where’s the enjoyment in that. I understand this was Retford’s first go at an Under 19 team. And, SUFC had some proper scholar professionals out there. Sam Graham had been on the bench for the U23s v Coventry the day before. Now, he turns up at Centre Back here. No proper teamsheet. Was that Nat Crofts & Stephen Mallon out there as well?
Anyway. Scored at will. Fair play to the Retford lads who stuck at it. It’s a Development league.
I got caught on the cusp of the CAMRA Good Pub Guide. My Android App is the 2016 version. Sent me the way of BeerHeadZ in Town Hall Yard. Problem being I stumbled across walked past the Idle Valley Brewery Tap to get there. Very tempted. Very intrigued. No. Concentrate. BeerHeadZ. On Thursday, my Android App updated itself to 2107. Which has the IVBT in it. Cusped.
Anyway. BeerHeadZ is a great place. One room. Small bar frontage. Four on cask. Nothing on keg. I went Elephant School, Aussie Blonde at 4%.
