White Rose Files

9 days… #whiterosefiles #cricket

@WG_RumblePants @BumbleCricket and @Athersmike and Michael Holding, while WRF always enjoyed two Yorkies (of course!)… Jim Laker and Raymond Illingworth. Jim rarely gets a mention but he had a lovely, laconic style that sat well on TV. #cricket #commentary

I know many people miss the sound of Richie’s voice on commentary. He’s probably still widely regarded as the best tv cricket commentator. But, if Richie remains at #1, who would you put at #2? I’m genuinely interested to see who people pick. Radio commentators need not apply!

Superb Friday evening at Pocklington Cricket Club for the ‘Pock Pixies’ with @YorkshireCCC head coach Anthony McGrath and a guest appearance by bowling coach Mick Lewis… with a mention for @WhiteRoseFiles 🥳🙌🏏😛. #events #cricket #Yorkshire

@andrewjwalker11 @YorkshireCCC No. M J Doidge probably did. Used to go to Lawrie Bennett’s Hanson School nets on Friday nights… some good laikers went there in the ‘80s.

@WhiteRoseFiles @YorkshireCCC Did u go to Fergies nets Saturdays in winter at Richard Dunn , with Nicklin, Chapman, Bob Winter ?

In which season did you first attend a @YorkshireCCC match and who was the skipper? #cricket #YORKSHIRE #wrf whiterosefiles.counterpress.media/coming-soon

@andrewjwalker11 @YorkshireCCC The Monday… with Lugsy Leatherdale, as Beefy and GD smashed it. ♥️🏏

@WhiteRoseFiles @YorkshireCCC Yes missed Boycs 100, remember watching on tv. Chappell soft handshake . I was at Headingley in 81, for all of it. Scored Dysons ton on the 1st day then gave it up , for rest of the test as we were getting battered. .......

@andrewjwalker11 @YorkshireCCC ‘77 here… the Monday after GB got his 100th hundred. Pascoe; Thommo; Lillee and not necessarily in that order.

@WhiteRoseFiles @YorkshireCCC Remember with Junior Membership u got all 5 days of the test included. Was India ar Headingley in 78. Venkat the umpire was their captain. Mi 1st test match

@andrewjwalker11 @YorkshireCCC ‘77 here… and also Boycs.

@WhiteRoseFiles @YorkshireCCC 78, I think Boycott was captain.

Welcome back, Will 👋 Yorkshire CCC is delighted to confirm Will Sutherland will return to the Club for this summer's Vitality Blast and two rounds of the Rothesay County Championship. Read more 👉 yorkshireccc.com/news/will-suth…

@Lanky_Lanky It’s in the WRONG colours… we’ve told you before: Oxford blue, Cambridge blue and gold, with a WHITE ROSE. 🤍 🏏💪

So, what do you think of the new Lanky Lanky site? If you enjoy it, spread the word ahead of the new season. There’s much more to come over the coming weeks, including this.

Good luck to our newly launched arch rivals @Lanky_Lanky today. I’m sure it will be good (but we’ll just be better 😜). We’re saving the best til last, of course, and launching on March 30th. No rush… 🤣🏏🥳

A future vision of @scarborough_cricket_club , well for 2026 at least, as the run down Peasholm Park end is going to be empty, with plans to redevelop that end of the ground at North Marine Road. #cricket #wrf

Three years since we recorded this. What a great way to celebrate the anniversary @Harry_Brook_88 ! #cricket #Yorkshire #wrf 🏏🍾🥳♥️ youtu.be/nMB6yhGML_0?si…
