3 quick wickets from the Bears. I think that means we just need to match their result to be champions.

Also, the vague chance of enforcing the follow on (need to get 3 wickets before they get 38 more runs). This may be a situation where we'd choose to bat for a bit first though?

Just hope Somerset don't collapse in their second innings.

Remember It's a 150 difference for the follow on in county ganes.

Just about in the end. Great catch from Rikki Clarke to finish off their first innings. Lancs should win their match so pressure on.

Yes, sorry. I was forgetting that the follow on is 150 in County Cricket and 200 in International.

Good job too!

COME ON YOU BEEEEEAAAAAARRRRRRSSSSS.

I assume the Pears are now safe officially?

What makes me laugh is in the media, for some reason no one seems to want the Bears to win. I hope we do it.

Is that the same media that also hates the Villa. Or is it just us?

With Somerset's second innings lead 5 for 5, Lancs are going to win.  So it is 7 wickets between us and the Championship. 

What's the weather forecast? 

Please, please, please let it happen. I've got a phone call I need to make to a mate and Lancs fan - and I've been holding off making it in the hope that I can gloat.

Even if they put on 300 for the last 7 wickets we should still have enough time to win it. Just don't fucking rain! I won't sleep tonight. COME ON YOU BEARS!
