Really is disappointing, He could have been the lad to bring back some of the young, tallented lads back through those doors. I guess you live by the sword, you die by the sword. I remember watching him bowl them to a Premiership up at Willaston as a 16/17 year old, 17 over straight on a 40odd degree day, 4/Eff all, how long 7-8 years really is in ones life!

On a brighter note, I have heard rumors there are some Salisbury North connections are on the way back accross Salisbury Downs to the home of the mighty Redbacks. That is if the three soccer pitches aren't laid by the council as some are suggesting!

His skipper was good to him that year nth pines won a gf against willaston. Helped him with his cricket . Also I think the skipper had a fair bit to do with the win making 88 with the bat. Good team effort I thought

Was that Curley?

[norm11]

No it wasn't Curley it was a bloke by the name of Bill fuller . Curley came in the year after and didn't do much

Didn't do much... your kidding right? He won the Association Batting trophy and beat Blondie's most runs in a year record... Sure the team struggled but to say Curley didn't do much is a bit of a bloody joke!

I never questioned that, nor did I shy away from the fact, however just making sure Curley's "did nothing" refelects his output as a coach with the group that year, rather than his cricket ability. Pretty unbelieveable considdering the side North Pines had around then, to pick up the what would be the best batter in the comp and the best bowler, to finish bottom. Team dynamics go further in a team sport than good individual tallent? Any way, seems PDCA Div one is headded back to the glory days, can not wait!

Im with you on this one Norm. The club has not been the same since. Just shows what a few poor decisions can do to a club.

have heard plenty of talk about good bowlers coming through/returning to PDCA but not a lot about batsmen... Plenty of low scores and out-rights this season maybe???

[saveyourlegs]

wouldn't think so.. i would say there are more batters than bowlers coming back..

SYL is normally wrong but in this instance i think he is right

[RedMagpie]

Any mug can throw a ball down the pitch, Any mug can hoik a ball over cow, but I think the in's this year from what I hear will be genuine quality, not just blokes having a dip, Batters and Bowlers a like!

With what has been reported recently, S Brown No 7 in the magoos, Id say there will be lots of bats around

I think the environment that they tried to turn the club towards killed them as a cricket side. As for poor decisions, I think the Pres that came in around that time and his support or lack of killed the club unfortunatly. Started with that year in football, continued into the cricket season, 12 months of un unhappy environment drove a few to leave and others followed ship. I am pretty sure, anyone that was around the Pines for those few glory years will always hold that little glimmer of hope that the club can resurface at some stage in the past. How ever I do know there are plans for three soccer pitches to go in there and the Cricket nets are planed to be ripped up.
