Its gonna get harder and harder to play Tottenham... You'll get nervous
Imagine being the first team to let them score this season? You'd never live that down.

Champion! We're champions... And its delightful but does make last season all the more baffling
But clearly and crucially things have been noted and learned. This group should fear nobody.
Best team in the whole competition for me, by a street.

Not followed a lot of County Cricket this season due to the W's of Work and Weather but after a testing couple of weeks for me, Durham's promotion has been a welcome tonic. We've been far, far too good for this division.
Everyone has contributed. Its been a joy.

Got back from the chaos and carnage of a Ladies Day at Musselburgh to be lulled into a "victory from the jaws of defeat" scenario as Durham looked to have slain Middlesex...
That was painful to take
Yesterday was far too long
Onwards to Sunday. We got this.

First round of golf in two months... After a long old 8 hour shift...
31,000 steps on the day
No juice in the bottle..
Only a twix to munch on...
56 over par
I got every single penny of the £20 green fee.
None of that 2 under par bollocks my mate managed, I saw the entire course.

well of course Ben Stokes is lame again... Hes a Durham bowler now and that means he'll inevitably be injured. That's just what Durham bowlers are.
They're either injured, coming back from injury or Ben Raine.
They train on pebble dash or something

The T20 Q/F's were much better viewing anyway. Yesterday peaked at around half seven.

Right up there with the "in the hole" golf people.
At least "it's coming home" is done for another two years.
