A bank holiday cricket runfest for Andy here - unbelievable achievement by Longridge professional Matt de Villiers on a Monday without out any football!!
The 1s have set 447-4 in their 40 Over Cup clash with Whalley - Matt De Villiers hits a club-record 247 runs off 88 balls, with 23 4s, 22 6s, and hitting SIX 6s in all six balls in Over 36. π€―
Different class. πΏπ¦
@AliceTalksFooty Absolutely not - theyβve stunk some games out and stumbled over the line
Itβs been positive overall but letβs not be silly
If Amorim had Maguire his results would have been better as well
@StickToCricket Fantastic watch listening to the common sense of @DGoughie around developing young players
Recognising that young players have got to be pushed to play a better standard of cricket against better players and giving them the best chance to realise their potential

@AliceTalksFooty When he played he didnβt look like he was fit enough
That might have been match fitness but the Mainoo omission is literally the only thing you can throw at him
RA was decimated with injuries and still had United in the hunt for champs league
@alan_sithole@RioMeets@rioferdy5 Is it ?
United have been shite under Carrick without Maguire - the Leeds game was the worst display defensively all season
Carrick gets the job and Maguire is fit & others returned from injury
Outside of Mainoo I really canβt see the criticism of Amorim as fair
@RioMeets@rioferdy5 Every credit to Giggs
Exactly how I see it!
Amorim lost Maguire and De Ligt and had thread bare squad when he went through the spell that saw his departure - Carrick has had Maguire until last 2 games itβs clear how important he is
Outside of the Mainoo issue Amorim did okay
We have very sadly lost the battle to overcome Sir Ginoβs ailment and he has had to be put to sleep at the veterinary hospital this morning.
He has been fighting from severe deep-seated infections that he had overcome last year prior to his brilliant return in the Christmas Hurdle but this time it had spread too far although his fractured pelvis was healing well.
He was not only brilliant but one of the nicest kindest horses you could ever wish to see and this leaves an awful hole in Seven Barrows this morning and a very sad day for Joe & Marie Donnelly. They have had some wonderful horses over the years and they both care so much for them so losing such a young star with his life in front of him is particularly cruel.
Sir Gino was unbeaten in all his 7 starts including 3 Grade 1βs over hurdles and an amazing display in a Grade 2 Chase on his one and only start over fences.
We would have to say that he was just at least as good as any of all the amazing horses we have been lucky enough to have trained. Unforgettable in every way.
@AtTheRaces@PaddyBrennan81@MCYeeehaaa@BoyleSports Strong words from Paddy on the antics of another jockey and yet radio silence on that run from Northern Air. For those who havenβt seen it, makes interesting viewing β¦β¦.
