At the risk of waking people up, I notice there is a vacancy for someone to become Eddie, looks like the last incumbent was yet another victim of Ronnie's ruthless axe.

Presumably the new Eddie will dance around with a slight limp and a Lanky accent? Or maybe Ronnie junior is next in line...

Well the main criteria should be to win the mascot race at the T20 Finals Day. I'm fed up with Eddie trailing the field.

Sadly I don't have Jessica's mobile number, otherwise...

Quite right.

One's a figure of fun who regularly falls flat on his face.

The other is Eddie the Eagle.

I wouldn't call a long stint at Essex, followed by a large pay-off, followed by walking straight in to another role falling flat on your face. A few other things maybe...

Did you used to go regularly & tilt at that windmill in Upminster?  ;D

Seems it took us a long time to get a new Eddie. Job advertised in February, yet filled two days before the first t20!

And what's this about the female eagle. Has anyone seen her?
