So I took the kids pocket money off them and explained I’d loaned it to some kind people in Stoke. And that uncle @Andy59Mitchell had a horse that was going to run very fast. Then the kind people from Stoke will give us £1000 for going to @SmythsToysUK . Well that’s the idea 😆

Today having spoken to all of his owners I have taken the decision to retire Brentford Hope. From the very start of my training career, Dave, as we all know him has been a completely wonderful horse for us all. Taking us to some fabulous places, winning some lovely races and giving his owners The Optimists so much fun along the way. His group of owners have been absolutely incredible, supportive regardless of result, game for a challenge and always put the needs of Dave first. For the first time in his life on Saturday watching through my binoculars he looked like he didn’t want to line up and face the starter and for a brilliantly genuine horse, I felt as his trainer it was my responsibility to listen to him telling us he’d had enough. There are so many people in my team that have been part of his journey and all of us love him dearly. On ratings, performance and history Brentford Hope won’t go down as anything special but to a young trainer aspiring to get on a bigger stage at the start of his career, he will always be a total superstar. This afternoon I took this picture of him enjoying the sunshine in the paddock. Safe, sound, happy and in one piece. Thank you so much Dave. For all your efforts. I hope I train many better than you but it will be a long time before I love one like you ⭐️

@ScottGretton That’s a different story and a modern day fad ??? Not sure taking a box brownie was even allowed when I was 20 😂😂 Although I did video me and my 2 sons at elland road in the semi final at the end of Mind I had waited about 40years for that to happen

@ScottGretton It’s hardly a unique thing to do It’s been done since late 70s when overseas players started playing in uk The lad obviously wants to show his support to Agyemang He’s doing no harm, it’s not offensive

@kelvmackenzie Absolutely Pathetic ! Possibly 2 of the oldest and tame after dinner stories anyone could use #madness I’m sure the 2 people who complained weren’t at the Kim Hughes dinner at Scarborough a few years ago??? Wow !! Even i didn’t know where to look and I reckon I’ve attended 100s

Grateful to Sir Geoffrey Boycott for revealing that the Cricket Regulator has absurdly fined the Deputy Chairman of Yorkshire CC , Phillip Hodson, £1,000 for telling two allegedly offensive and discriminatory gags at a lunch. The Telegraph says the gags were made at the Scarborough Cricket Club annual lunch. Frankly I find the fine and Mr Hodgson being fired from his role at YCC ridiculous and wrong. You make your own mind about the gags; Joke No 1. “I apologise for looking so tired but this is the third dinner in as many days. On Sunday I was in Halifax, speaking to the local haemorrhoid society where incidentally I received a standing ovation. “ On Monday I was in Hill as a guest of the Gay Liberation Front and I must say it’s gratifying to see so many friendly and familiar faces tonight. Joke No.2 ; “ Everybody’s getting their award and they’ve sold three or four bibles, but this chap has sold 305 bibles and I asked how did you sell 305? At that stage he starts to shutter. “ He explains; ‘Well,well, well I go and knock on the door and the lady comes to the door and I say; ‘ Would, would, would you like to buy a bible or would would you like me to stand here and read it to you.’” Pretty thin material but the idea of him being fined by the English Cricket Board regulator is simply absurd. Apparently only two of 200 guests at Scarborough Cricket Club complained to the Regulator but have decided to keep their anonymity. Appalling you can destroy someone’s reputation but demand you keep your own identity a secret. But even that cowardice is less important than fine being handed out an a reputation destroyed. Can you imagine the ECB committee pouring over the jokes before making that decision. What an odd site. At the minimum Mr Hodson should appeal and hold the ECB up to ridicule. They deserve it.

@dgriffinpix @ian_randall1 Agreed Dave and how they must be congratulated for it but we’ve won nothing since 2012 ( although i really do fancy the CC this year ) and that’s what fans want to see When the chop of CC clubs comes along a profit of £76k won’t stop the powers that be kicking us out the CC

The last four administrations all contributed to ground development from the Gateway and floodlights in 2004 to the present day. And all monies spent on the ground were never at the expense of cricket staff; all our ground development has been funded by ECB and other grant funding which was also available to other counties. Derbyshire, in the main, spent wisely, and stayed out of debt.

@ian_randall1 @dgriffinpix The one thing you cant complain about at dccc is ground improvements i believe Granty was the instigator of this At the start of most of the last 10 seasons some improvement has been made Id like to see more success on the field than a new loo block but u cant have it all 😂😂
