Essex ccc second x1

[nat]

So, not a rabble, more like a group of youngsters no doubt doing their best against more experienced opposition and perhaps even quite pleased to have been selected for our second eleven. ...

That attitude has its rightful place in the Dog & Duck 3XI on Sunday.

It will get to the stage that, you dare not go and watch. In case you are asked to play for Essex.

I'd show more determination than Benkenstein showed today.

It would be awful. If you were asked to play. For the reason, that you are all we have.

Yeah we?re getting thrashed again and Benky gave away both his innings.

Thank you for asking about the Seconds' game - I had not noticed that it is taking place. With reference to recent correspondence on this thread about our Seconds: on the one hand it might be said that it is not constructive to refer to them as a rabble, but on the other hand it could be said that it shows we supporters care strongly about the performance of teams representing our Essex CCC - we just have different ways of expressing ourselves.
