Let's hope we keep up our good record against Somerset

I was hoping to get the Sunday fixture for the sake  of the club, but it should be a great game with a big attendance.

[Dave Cooper please]

It's a Bank Holiday on the Monday so still a chance of a great crowd if we get the weather.

Am going to Finals Day tomorrow - anyone know what's in place if it rains all day !?

Evidently Liam Plunkett got non stop abuse yesterday from a bunch of pissed Kent supporters and the stewards ignored it.

Man of the Match? Liam Plunkett. Well done morons, got him fired up nicely.

These usually plenty going on particularly down the City end,sorry must be politically correct the Birmingham end, plenty of bars and places to eat (expensive) but there will
be various sidestalls where things are 'happening'....such as photo opportunities with cricket celebs or maybe even the trophy....which are free.
If in Block 9 u are able to use the Heath bar which u can access from in the stand area through the patio doors. If anywhere near you can always try and blag your way in!!!

Enjoy the day!!!

Thanks PGW and I believe there is a reserve day in case all of tomorrow is washed out.

[taylorsworkrate]

Yeah, think that might be a mistake.

Only saw a bit of the hit and run yesterday, it was a load of people in fancy dress singing along to YMCA with moronic 'commentary' from Shane Warne and David Lloyd. Panto season started early.
