@SpursOfficial having secured Premier League status, how about offering @LincolnCity_FC a preseason friendly? 👀 #SpursvTheImps

Any pitch rated "below average" in this year's County Championship will result in the home side being awarded zero points from the fixture, regardless of the match result | @NickFriend1

[Lord's Cricket Ground @HomeOfCricket]

We are deeply saddened by the passing of Mick Hunt, former Head Groundsman at Lord's.

Mick was a very popular character among MCC Members and staff, and his huge smile a permanent feature around the Ground for 49 years, having joined the Lord's groundstaff in 1969 and retiring in 2018.

Few people can attest to being so indelibly connected to the history of Lord's.

We offer our sincere condolences to his family.

As was confirmed on Saturday at our annual dinner dance, next year we will be hosting a very special Centenary Dinner to mark 100 years of Southgate RFC.

You know you'd often wonder
As the years go past
Why you ever bothered
Going to mass
Was it the fear of god
Or to find a wife
Or just buying shares
In the afterlife?

I feel like every winter groundsman complain about the weather...

Some rain count data I've collected at Aldenham...

01/Nov/22 - 28/Feb/23: 237mm
01/Nov/23 - 29/Feb/24: 418mm

Some difference, makes me feel better about the fact I can't get a machine on over half our site!

Remember, Remember the Fifth of November, the gunpowder treason and plot.

For I see no reason, why the gunpowder treason should ever be forgot.
