THE ARKLEY CRICKET CLUB NEWS BULLETIN ************************** **k******** Arkley Cricket Club, Editor; Brunswick Park, OCTOBER 1975 Brian \ndrews, New Southgate, N.h. 76 Crewys Road, Founded; 1932 J3ULLETIN No. 76 Child’s Hill, Members of AMCC & CCC LONDON, N.W.2 2AD No. 10, SERIES 4 Club Colour; Maroon Telephone; 01—455—2536 THEARKLEYHERALD “MONTHLY” THE BULLETIN THAT PUTS REPORT ING BACK TWENTY YEARS. Close Season Nets start again and Petet ámuss roes buck to school! As usual we are attending the Hertfordshire County Cricket School at hatfield Polytechnic on Thursday nights from 8 till 9pm during the close season. So far this term we have been the only team attending at that time and so we have been able to take more than the usual six people and use a second net AT NO EXTRA CHARGE’. In addition to this we have been able to start before 8pm as there is an empty net between 7 and Bpm and so by 9pm we are all uit...... for nothing but we just about find the strength to crawl into the bar’. individual Attendance figures so far this season with cumulative figures since the 1971 season in parentheses are (Maximum 4(99)); 4 R.Ingrani(94), J.Griffiths(87), C.Brown(20), P.Amass(4). 3 P.Brown(8 P.Townsend(50), 13.Andrews (42) (+1 with Old Finc’ s C .C.). 2 C.Townsend(80),i), N.Gibbons(31). TOTAL 29 £B—30p1 of the £42—OO paid in advance for the hire of the nets has already been recouped in weekly fees, so by the end of the close season (28 visits) we should have made a handsome profit The netting and lighting have been improved this term and there is even a new barman. i3ob ‘Hirem V. Cheap’ Ingram is particularly pleased at the new lighting as it will be better for filming purposes but he has decided not to film Norman Gibbons bowling because a succession of very wide wides can become, in Norman’s own words, very boring. lso new at the nets this term is Peter ‘Fairy $$‘ Amass our early season signing from ‘ackney Vandals for the give away price of two bowling markers and an umpires coat. Peter was out six times on his debut but since then he has proved it was no fluke and continues to give our bowlers egos a boost’. Peter’s bowling has claimed several notable scalps including Bob ‘Stupid Boy’ Ingram and Yours Truly but this is due to the fact that he bowls before you are ready. (Sorry Peter I didn’t mean it wait a minute, he’s paid his annual subs now ..... oh yes I did.) Clive Townsend bowled his ‘Morecainbe & Wise’ or ‘Funky Gibbon’ ball but he tells us he is working on something new, brother Paul is still trying to perfect the ball that takes five minutes to reach the batsman whilst John Griffiths continues to bowl at the speed of that famous Australian pair (Ashley Mallett & Ian Chappell) The brothers Brown, Peter & Colin,continue to do a fine job organising the nets each week although I am not looking forward to their 0 next phone bill, nor I doubt is Arthur Brown. Cohn Johnson has chickened out of coming to the nets this winter on the pretext that he goes to evening class that night, a likely story.. There are rumours that Jon Davies is thinking of gracing us with his presence (I think I prefer the first version) and it is hoped that Mark Cripps and Tony Booth will be able to attend when they are ‘down’ from University. Sharma is still nursing his end of season injury and Peter Tait is now decorating his garden shed but Arthurs Brown and Johnson would be Ø7Ø1I guests if they wish to attend. PERSONAL

This will be the first rise for several years however which is not bad in these days of galloping inflation.

But the deciding match indicated some of the dangers of’ systems that allow for a high proportion of bonus points. Playing Merioneth, Montgomeryshire had to get 18 points to overhaul F’lintshire. Merioneth could only field a weakened side that was not in Montgomery— Hopeful of 10 match and five bowling —shire’s class. nen L points, Montgomeryshire still needed to get batting etuiit In L points. dng bowlea When Merioneth won the toss and batted this looked improbable as their innings declined to 59 for 8. To set themselves the higher target they needed, Montgomeryshire began to feed rims to the tailenders and with the aid of copious byes nursed them to 88 for 8, when they were checkmated by Merioneth’s declaration. Montgomeryshire then had no hope of the 18 points, although they won by 6 wickets. To bring an end to a farcical match the Merioneth captain bowled six wides in the last over. That was an apt finish as the bonus system had set a wide tactical gulf from normal cricket. THE CRICKETEI When last was a player dropped for the match immediately after he had hit the Australians for 100 in 44 minutes, as happened to Robin Hobbs of Essex recently. (With selection like that, no wonder Essex never won their six remaining matches). TIlE CRICKETER
