Okay so I finally received this after waiting for my Mum to post it over from the UK. Began last night with Nottinghamshire and played the MCC on an ealry season Lords wicket that took spin Rolling Eyes Not surprisingly blew them off the park with Swann tacking a 10 for and was feeling pretty happy with myself until I realised that both Swann and Broad would miss most of the season. Think I should have been proactive in recruiting players before the season began.

Think Swann will be the greatest loss, no other decent spinners in the squad (Patel but he is hardly going to spin teams out in the Championship). Think my best tactic now is to hope for the usual wet British summer and for the quicks to bowl teams out on green wickets Smile

Played a couple of games last night. Not surprisingly blew Oxford CCC off the park but struggled against Yorkshire on a batsman's pitch (at headingley though so didn't get to select it myself), managed to bat out for the draw with 5 down and not a chance in hell of chasing their total.

Enjoying it so far, managed to sit through a whole boring courtroom drama film with the mrs last night by playing this game from the opening credits until it finished nearly 3 hours later Smile

Completed my first season last night. Won the County Championship thanks to Sussex doing a Hansie Cronje type deceleration in the final match of the season, which enabled me to win by 4 wickets with 2 overs remaining in the 4th day. Got hammered in the quarter finals in the 20/20 as both of my overseas's players were on international duty and in honesty David Hussey had carried the team that far on his own. Fell away in the 40 over comp as well and finished well down the table.

Managed to loose 4 decent players to retirement and lost another due to being too tight in the contract negotiations. Signed a couple of replacements (plus AB DeVilliers and Chris Gayle for 20/20) but it's going to be a long season as my bowling attack is pap unless Broad & Swann are not away with England.

Nah I'm Notts so never had Monty or Beer. With Swann managing about 3 CC games all season due to England I basically used 2 part timers in Voges & Patel which enabled me to play 4 seamers in the most. On the few occasions I played on a spinners pitch then a young lad called White came in for one of the seamers but he's not going to be a world beater.

Will be using the same tactic this year. Played the first game of the season last night and beat Warickshire by an innings after making them follow on. Wouldn't have happened if Broad and Swann were not playing through (Swann scored 90 batting at 9 and took 5 wickets in the second innings).

Fletcher got injured early on without playing a game and I never selected him afterwards. Still got him for this year as he was on a 3 year contract - is he any good?

Chris Read is my captain, has averaged about 40 in the 1.5 seasons I've played (and around 30 in the 40 over comp). He's about the only Notts player who by making captain doesn't play like he's taken LSD or something.

I tried to be smart for 20/20 this year and signed AB DeVilliers so he could keep wicket and then I could load the team with 8 batsmen (with Chris Gayle & Samit Patel as all-rounders) but it failed miserably. His average was poor and thankfully he got called up by SA and I began winning again after Read returned.

My next game is against the Eagles in the 20/20 quarters at Trent bridge.
