Was that for flogging T20 tickets? Can't think what else it was for.

Certainly not that laughable "beer festival" which simply entailed even more Shepherd Neame swill than usual.

Now, now it's a panacea for many ills: constipation, blocked drains, etc. indeed, serve it at Sangatte and there wouldn't be anything for The Daily Mail to worry about.

So I was right about T20 then.

Wonder what the commercial team did over & above the call of duty as we are one of the few counties that doesn't have naming rights secured.

Bl&$@y H*&£l, Valentine, don't you EVER see any good in anything? OPr anyone?

Or is there a prize somewhere for Old Misery of the year?

I sent the club an e-mail about the new advertising screen when it is used as a scoreboard, and he answered it, well I say answered, he didn't answer the points raised, just said how popular the use of the screen was at T20 matches.

The commercial department has won awards unlike the cricketing department. Sometimes seems ECCC is a marketing business that has cricket teams attached. The chief exec has spent most of his career in advertising, and the previous one was a marketing man, which explains why for years the focus has been on marketing a rubbish product, rather than improving the quality of the product.

I'm not that old

As for praise it's only due when warranted.

Which is why it's in such short supply where Essex are currently concerned.

Good luck to Danny in his new role, Essex will miss him, at least he has done his best to help in what must be difficult circumstances, as said by a previous poster in making silk purses out of sow's ears.
Thank You Danny for all your efforts - at least you are visible around the ground every day & also approachable.

[Crisp]

I personally think that the guy worked his socks off and like all good people his value will really be missed once he has gone.

Valentines Park, is there anything or anybody that you do not knock at Essex CCC, the slurs against this guy are totally unfounded and totally untrue.

[Valentines Park]

the slurs against this guy are totally unfounded and totally untrue.

What slurs?

Unless saying his performance wasn't all it was cracked up to be counts as a slur.

VP, your continued comments about an employee who isn't in a position to defend himself are inappropriate and unfair. You've made your opinion known, but that's enough on this now please.

[sufcessex]

Good Luck with the Shrimpers Danny, Essex's loss will be SUFCs gain i'm sure.

Agreed. And the same goes for Danny Mac

Would like to thank those above (perhaps with one exception - you can't please them all!) for their kind comments. I have been unable to post up until now and will probably make this my last but one post. Will post a comment on the Q&A section now, thanks

[Andy]

Danny, don't worry about VP...he loves you all really.

[Blocky]

This thread pretty much sums up why I've not bothered to take a look at this forum for most of the season. 

Here's a bloke who has absolutely worked his nuts off for the club and it's membership.  always ready to take on a challenge and he won a fair few as well.  I will personally miss him as he's a good guy. 

some of you lot need a proper slap as well.  The moaners aren't even members in many cases. 

unreal.

Before I respond: does anyone know how big Blocky is? Does he have access to fire arms/ sharp implements?
