2nds Go Second. EAG 2s had another GREAT win on Saturday this time smashing top-of-the-table and previously unbeaten West Bergholt by 8 wickets. A great spell from Ed Lambert helped restrict WB to 160 which The Green got with 10 overs to spare thanks largely to Col Brewery MoM James Plummer. The Green move to second and there’s just 9 points between us now.
1sts Stay First. The 1s had a tougher game at home against Mildenhall but safely bagged 19 points through a serene innings from Alastair Hammond. Read full details here. It’s still incredibly tight. Easton play Tuddenham on Saturday and as The Green have a week off we’ll be back in 3rd place with just 4 games to go. If everyone keeps winning it will all come down to the last game of the season at home to Tuddenham!
Ray Fulcher Drops In. A spritely gentleman dropped into the club last week and said he thought he was on a team picture. He was indeed and RAY FULCHER (for it was he) is pictured on the 1961 team picture. A rare coincidence as John Stonehouse also dropped in recently, and this was the last year he bought a round.
