When the Film day has been advertised over the Tannoy at the Middx & Gloucs T20 matches it has been stated as being on Sat Aug 8th which is incorrect, it is Sat Aug 6th!!
Good to see accuracy prevails!!

Amazed the scoreboard advertised a cricketing event, was it two overs into the session like all the other adverts ? If the weather doesn't improve the on field cinema will be a live action showing of 'Titanic', that will be a night to remember.

Not heard anything about this...any danger it might be issued before the end of the season or will we get a double issue next year...at least they will be able to set the tone right for the pre season predictions...

Local businesses advertise in the yearbook. What will happen if it does not appear?

They can always ask for their money back. Good luck with that.

Free inclusion next year?

If I was an advertiser I’d be p****d off, but I might accept that. Better still, two years.

However, I still fail to understand why the wretched thing hasn’t been produced. Many years ago I produced something similar in about 8 weeks, which included, of course “old fashioned” printing, not computerised.

Quite clearly it isn't regarded as important by an administration that has no feeling for the game or its supporters.  What's the betting that next year it will not appear at all because of reduced demand?

If you think no yearbook is bad. Think of the people who ordered a luxury apartment.

Is it asking too much for the handbook to be available for Colchester week ( Remember when next seasons fixtures were available then ! ) ?

There are plenty of other luxury apartments in Essex they can buy, can't say that for the yearbook.

Bumper double issue available next year priced at only £7 for members. Come on Essex don't let this opportunity slip through your fingers, it'll be like getting that Christmas and New Year Radio Times, you can't beat the whiff of nostalgia , well something smells anyway.

No! Hear the bad news isn't whitewashed. If we'd been authors of the report Blair would be swinging from a lampost by now...Oh dear I've come over all Ben Elton.
