@KidderStNoise I don’t mind signing Redmond short term, but after O’Neill’s comments last night, I think staying up this season will make very little difference to the overall direction of travel. It’s futile.

Same people that celebrated and glorified the Summer transfer window are now celebrating that we've signed someone for the last 7 games who couldn't get a kick for Sheff Wednesday 🤷‍♂️

@exiledlanc @ChrisCricket6 C. 420 members voted at the last AGM. The Board now want c. 300 member signatures before members can put any topic on the agenda at the AGM. It used to be 2 members, then they raised it to 25. 169 members signed resolutions last year which still weren't put on the agenda.

A number of members at Lancashire CCC have asked how they can get their SGM voting papers. I suggest anyone who hasn't received the online link to vote contacts the Membership Secretary Gaz Morris.

@ChrisCricket6 @LancsCCMG I’ve just found the second email , again in my junk file. I’ve read another member having the same problem. The system isn’t robust enough. I’ll wager many people will be unawares and miss out on voting.

@LancsCCMG @exiledlanc Thanks, I’ll contact them. After hearing Chilton last night on the wireless I’d be surprised if anyone votes in favour of the club.

@ChrisCricket6 Have you checked your junk folder? That’s where mine went, even though I’ve bookmarked the sender. It Mi-voice, not Lancashire cricket.

@LancsCCMG @exiledlanc I only rejoined in January, first time in a few years, but haven’t had anything. Presumably I should have voting rights?

@LancsCCMG You should have the option of either, especially when many of the members will be older and less au fait with online stuff. Anyway, with Bumble and other ex - players getting involved, the hierarchy is now under serious pressure.

@LancsCCMG Emails get missed. Mine went into my junk file, and I only found it when the vote started getting discussed on here. I don’t trust them.

@SkyNews Presumably, he’s talking about America when he writes “the lunatic nation”.

If you are a passionate Lancashire CCC Member your voice is the HEARTBEAT of this great club. Do not allow it to be SILENCED!           VOTE AGAINST ALL 7 Resolutions proposed by the Board at the SGM on 9 April.

@LancsCCMG @lewtj1 I wouldn’t trust them as far as I could throw them. The votes in the room clearly went against the hierarchy, but the non - attenders vote miraculously went very much the other way.

Members have raised questions for a formal response at the AGM about the way membership records are kept and how the auditors ensure voting is done accurately. I doubt very much that there has been deliberate fraud but there have been worrying errors that do need an independent response from the auditors which has been requested.

@lewtj1 @LancsCCMG After what I witnessed last year, I have no faith the vote will be counted fairly. The powers that be will do what they want.

@LancsCCMG I was initially quite surprised at the number of proposals then less so when I read them and came to a similar conclusion. I think members who fully read the proposals will likely vote against them - I’m just not sure enough do read them or go beyond the board’s “recommendation”

@exiledlanc @brfcsdotcom I hate clubs get deducted points because of awful owners, as we well know the fans are powerless to do anything about it. The fact we may have to rely on that to stay up makes it even worse.

Well, can't turn down a #rovers point against the team in 2nd. 4 out of 6 against much better teams is unexpected but very welcome. Lots of effort from most of the team today but the quality was simply non-existent. So lacking in the midfield & attack.

@BRFC4Life @brfcsdotcom Hopefully the authorities make about Leicester, soon. Be nice if they deducted a few more points, but just as long as they don’t get any back.

@exiledlanc @brfcsdotcom Can't complain, WBA on a bounce so was expected they'd turn it around eventually. Thankfully the others continue to drop points but we have some tough games coming up,

Unbelievable result for #rovers today. The best response they could give after the Oxford game.

@LancsCCMG @Reduislam7 Yes, one way or another he’ll move on after the Blast, but at least the block format should help with his availability for that.

We’re currently looking for a venue to host the fell for it again awards. This will be a separate event with multiple trophies and some lucky winners might win more than one category 👀
Chris Martin@ChrisMartin_93

@KidderStNoise Can it not be called the ‘fell for it again’ trophy?
