The comment below is from Ralph Derarman not me.
T Titmarsh

The Waur Trophy: from the 16 games due to be played, 7 were walk overs, again not the spirit of the game, we trust that there will be no more in the next round. Now it`s up to you to inform the players.

Becket Trophy: This has got to be the worst thing ever, one team has to concede as they have not enough players, the other one, although I know it was being played, an idiot has not read the instructions on the bottom of the sheet, and how many sheets have you had this year alone, so therefore both teams are disqualified for no result. Now if the winning team wishes to lynch the idiot who should have phoned over the score, or even failed to phone the correct number, be my guest. If he were an employee of mine, he would be give his P45 on the spot.

Again I must inform you, my telephone number in the County Handbook is incorrect. the one at the bottom of the sheet is correct, again how many sheets has that idiot received or looked at.

A very very sad competition secretary.
