Was announced at yesterday's match it will be available at the first home County Match . Think the cost has gone up to £5 but may have heard incorrectly

Thank you. I wonder why it gets later every year? I bought the Yorkshire yearbook in March.

I think I read it in an e-mail from the club - it was on time last year. I collected it at the Lancashire match.

Free for life members. I was also offered a free scorecard yesterday. I have to say the club are doing a little bit for lifers these days.

About time too ... are you going to the Life member event on Bank Holiday Monday?

I doubt it to be honest. My mate who isn't a member is coming for his only home cricket that week. He's a teacher from the north east so I'll be hob nobbing with him.

Bring him as a guest?

I'd sign up as a life member but what is the life expectancy of county cricket these days? 5 years?

Yes - it's certainly not as good value as when I became a Life member about 30 years ago.

Looking at some of the Life Members, The Life expectancy of a new Life Member is around five years.

It's STILL not out and won't be until the Kent match in 2 weeks' time. I just get the impression that nobody in the management cares.

Correct. Only interested in rinsing the T20 and corporate punters. They take members for granted.

And it will only get worse once they get their £1.3 million 'hundred' dividend from next year.

I was told a month when I enquired today which makes it Hants in mid June - maybe something the Club had no control over but not very professional nonetheless!

This really is unacceptable. All the information was available in the winter and it should have been ready for the first match of the season. It always was in the Peter Edwards era. Danny Macklin also seemed on top of this project. It is hardly "War and Peace". I only collect the thing as it maintains my run since 1964. Thank you to those who have updated the position as it has saved me making a phone call to the club.

It was announced at lunch today that it would be available at the Kent game the week after next.
