Barclay Shield 2025/26

I think the suggestion was that IF their teams got relegated then they might be on the move, not that they had signed anywhere before the end of the season

I’m hearing Emmins is loyal as they come and will be signed/announced prior to next season

Grapevine is a funny thing JT, chrimes and Emmins are all a class act who wouldn’t sign elsewhere prior to season ending money shield or Barclay shield

Any else think the relegation is ridiculous

think there are quite a few on here completely missing the point of the upheaval at seasons end, they are bringing in a new shield grade , to have 4 shield grades of 8 teams in each grade, which means every team can play each other twice, once in a 2 day game and once in a one day game , realistically, in 4-5 years time , the grades will have sorted themselves out and most people wont even remember the upheaval of this season, 10 odd years ago , if someone had said that Plenty cc or Montmorency cc would be playing in mash shield , what would have been the response

JT was out the door this time last year & then backed out of his agreement with the new club. Chrimes a class act!! You must be kidding yourself. He & his team carry on like lunatics when things don’t go there way. Even refusing to shake hands in a recent game until the umpires got involved & quoted spirit of cricket. I couldn’t care less if players choose to move to other clubs but don’t go calling people “class acts”, when its not the case.

Chrimes and class act in the same sentence is one of the funnier things i've seen on here
 
Looks like a few teams will be praying that the rain sticks around and they walk away with 3 points that will keep them safe.

But also wouldn’t put it past the valley to get to tomorrow morning and reschedule the whole round knowing it affects 3 teams, they bent the rules for the hit & giggle summer smash

If games do get on, could no Falcke and Swainger hurt Macleod?

Good call KK. Nothing surprises any of us with the valley. Really is a two bob comp.
Relegation may come down to percentage.
I think the only lock for the round is Bundy utd although I can’t see Epping get over Riverside. Every other game is a flip of the coin. One thing is for sure, there will be some controversy come Saturday night.
