Bedgegood played at R&C from 09/10, last season in 12/13.. 4x straight GF's.. coincidence?
Side note..
Returned to Enfield in 13/14 as a coach following 4 consecutive wooden spoons (same period i was at R&C), and since played in 3x GFs and 3x SFs.
Therefore, it's fair to deduct.. I AM #TheDifference

Lost a lot more than one player!
Units have massively over acheived this year, came good in the second half.
But only 6 players are playing this week from last years A Grade GF side,
plus 4 from their grade 3 side that only won 3 games and last years Grade 7 captain.
Never had the same team 2 games in a row and used 20 different players in the A's this year.

I would think both Riverton & Dublin have 'earnt' the right to go down to div2 and have an 'easier' year more so than CU have 'earnt' the right to refuse to move up to div1.
It's a joke when you see a club like OTH 'purchase the services' of quality cricketers only to cry foul and want to be dropped divisions when the money dries up or the mercenaries take off. Can't have your cake and eat it too.
Clubs need to be held responsible to create atmosphere, environment, culture that is sustainable and encourages players to come back year after year. Ultimately as a club if you have a huge exodus you need to look at yourselves and why this has happened, not just cry foul to drop division, put all other clubs out and repeat the cycle. (sure there will be some genuine reasons but im also sure there is things the club could do better)
Get your junior cricket sorted and you wont generally have these 'mass exodus' issues, look at SW, Craigmore, Angle Vale.
This is my pet hate in amateur sport!!!!!

Speaking of which, the majority of the club wanted to go down after losing Benny, their delegate opted to stay up and fight it out.
I'm not sure that the Goats "purchased" players, they've had a fair group that had played together for a while and then they drifted apart bit by bit.
They did have juniors a few years ago, they done well but were poorly ran from what I saw, the same kids batted up the order and bowled early, it was win at all costs to the coach, it was a joke and a real shame as they had some great kids out there.

Purchase maybe not the right word but they take back in the Scotts, Smith, Fantasia, Neil etc and then when they take off as they do every time they go and sook to the league.

Troy Scott was a regular out there, Dublin chucked some coin at him to get them off the ground then Freeling out-coined them, Adam Smith has been a part of the furniture out there since he was a kid, Fanta lived with him and was out there for many years too, Phil Neil may have been given some dosh but he was good mates with the other two.
One thing I've always noticed out at Goat land, they have a great comradeship with each other, I've always enjoyed playing against them and enjoyed having a post game beer with them regardless of the venue, they'd always stick around as I always did up there, they've even presented our best player awards as they hung around that long one night.
