This page provides a repository of all the old What's New entries for 2008, in reverse chronological order. If you really have a desire for the older entries, then the links below will get you access to all those that I've saved. They are unlikely to be of any great interest, but do provide a picture of how the site has developed over the eight years it has been here.


21 Aug 2008

Another pasting this week, by Maori-Oxshott, full details of which can be found on the results page along with Simon's full match report and the pertinent elements from the scorecard.

This coming weekend's game against Morden Corinthians has been confirmed as being at the Raynes Park Sports Ground, the same place that we played Morden Parish earlier in the season for those that played in that game. Full address and map links can be found on the fixtures page, and I've updated the Google Map showing the grounds we play on to reflect this confirmation.

11 Aug 2008

Last week's fixture with Englefield Green was rained off, but full details of yesterday's drubbing by Reigate Cavaliers can be found on the results page along with a summary match report and the pertinent elements from the scorecard.

29 Jul 2008

The fiftieth anniversary event has been and gone and even the chilly weather couldn't ruin what was an emotional and entertaining day. A short review can be found on the fiftieth anniversary page along with links to Rodney Fenner’s impressive array of photographs and downloadable versions of the ‘These Fifty Years’ booklet that was distributed on the day.

Normal service resumed this past weekend, and full details of last Sunday's solid win over Ham & Petersham can be found on the results page along with a full match report and the pertinent elements from the scorecard.

Finally, I am not playing next weekend at Englefield Green so the site will not be updated again until I've had a chance to lay my hands on the scorebook the weekend after that.

18 Jul 2008

Full details of last Sunday's comfortable win over Ockham can be found on the results page along with a summary match report and the pertinent elements from the scorecard.

I must apologise to both Graham Ward and, more importantly since his was within a day of the completion of the game, Allan Butt for sitting on their handiwork since the start of last week but I have been up to my eyeballs in the booklet that will be distributed at the fiftieth celebrations on Sunday. With the event looming, and the deadline for getting the document to the printers looming larger, it has taken up pretty much all of my leisure time over the past fortnight and so this site has had to take a back seat. Anyway, irrespective of my inadequacies we now have a full match report for Morden Parish and a rather more tardy one for the Beechwood game.

I have, rather belatedly, set up a separate page for the fiftieth anniversary celebrations where you can find full details of the day, culled from Simon's latest communication, plus up to the minute information and an archive of the 'Fiftieth Fact' items.

Finally, I have added an up-to-date lifetime averages page to the hall of fame so that everyone can keep on top of the official position on career milestones for the club rather than having to do their own.

6 Jul 2008

Full details of yesterday's nine-man victory over Morden Parish can be found on the results page along with a summary match report and the pertinent elements from the scorecard.

I should also point out that I have been keeping the Hall Of Fame partnerships page up-to-date and have just churned out one of the periodic in-season updates to the personal pages, which affect the best performances and partnerships but not the averages (which are only added to after the awarding of trophies at each season’s dinner and dance).

4 Jul 2008

Please accept my apologies for being so remiss, but I've had an update to the fixtures page ready to go since last Saturday – when I noticed that the details for tomorrow's game with Morden Parish were missing or incorrect – but completely forgot to put it up. My only excuse is that I've been so wrapped up in preparations for the rapidly looming Fiftieth Celebration that I've not had any spare time to devote to the site, but that is fairly pathetic. Those of you playing in the game should have received an email from Paul Little announcing the correct start time and I hope that no one turns up an hour early because of my tardiness.

27 Jun 2008

PLEASE NOTE that Saturday's game with Clapham has been cancelled, due to our inability to put out a team. Next weekend's game is on a Saturday too, so I do hope this isn't setting a precedent (especially since I prefer playing Saturdays – although I appreciate that I am in the minority).

Full details of last Sunday's game against Tadworth can be found on the results page along with Patrick's full match report and the pertinent elements from the scorecard.

16 Jun 2008

Full details of yesterday's game against East Horsley can be found on the results page along with a summary match report and the pertinent elements from the scorecard.

8 Jun 2008

Full details of yesterday's big win against Epsom Methodists can be found on the results page along with a summary match report and the pertinent elements from the scorecard.

My apologies to Simon for taking the better part of a week to post his handiwork, but the full match report for Leigh is now available for your delectation and amusement.

1 Jun 2008

Full details of yesterday's game against Leigh can be found on the results page along with a summary match report and the pertinent elements from the scorecard.

31 May 2008

Full details of last Sunday's game against Dormansland, which I didn't realise until I got home was the fiftieth between the two clubs, can be found on the results page along with a full match report and the pertinent elements from the scorecard.

15 May 2008

There will definitely be no game this weekend due to an inability to put out a full team on either day.

12 May 2008

Next Sunday's game with Stoke D'Abernon has been cancelled already. As usual we will go to conference for a replacement fixture but as of Sunday evening it had not been decided whether this would be a Saturday or Sunday fixture due to a significant number of unavailabilities for the original day. Watch this space, and your Inbox, for further details.

Full details of last Sunday's game against Sutton Sunday Seconds can be found on the results page along with a summary match report and the pertinent elements from the scorecard.

PLEASE NOTE that if next week's game turns out to be on Sunday then I am unavailable so the website updates may be a little tardier due to the need for someone else to send me the relevant details and a summary report.

6 May 2008

Full details of last Sunday's game at Broadbridge Heath can be found on the results page along with a summary match report and the pertinent elements from the scorecard.

1 May 2008

Full details of last Sunday's first game of the 2008 season at Beechwood can be found on the results page along with a summary match report and the pertinent elements from the scorecard.

Thanks to Simon Fox I've added more meat to the bare bones of the fiftieth anniversary celebrations news item, and you may also have noticed the changes above that make the fiftieth the focus of this front page. Thanks are due to Mark Gordon (and daughter Amy, I am led to believe) for the image of the number 50 constructed from cricket balls.

This year's tour has officially been cancelled due to lack of numbers prepared to commit to going, and the fixtures page has been updated to reflect that.

24 Mar 2008

The usual winter laissez-faire, and my own problems, have seen the site lying fallow for several months again, for which I can only apologise. I recently had a long chat with Simon Fox, in his role as club chairman, and agreed some basic parameters on updating of the site in order to try and avoid such problems in the future, and I am actively looking into ways of making some (if not all) of the content of the site accessible to other interested parties so that things like news items can be created without my involvement.

New items of current interest include details of indoor nets, the new fixtures (including a link to a new Google Map that displays the location of all grounds we are slated to play at during the 2008 season), and a small item on the rapidly looming fiftieth anniversary celebrations.

On the historical front there is a brief (and sadly rather incomplete) report on the dinner and dance, the full season report is now available for last season and the personal pages have been updated with full details of the batting, bowling and miscellaneous statistics from 2007.

I've also done a considerable amount of housekeeping over this weekend, including checking for (and generally correcting) broken links and errors in the underlying page markup. Please let me know if find any such problems, especially dead links in the live areas of the site (chasing down such issues in news and what's new archives is a constant battle, but I'm quite happy to be notified of problems there too).
