Darfield – Sheffield Collegiate Cricket Club

Against All Odds………….

3rd August 201030th November -0001 Bully 1 Comment Darfield, Rotherham

The stiffs travelled to 2nd place Darfield on Saturday with a very inexperienced side, with only Rooty above the age of 29! Surely defeat was inevitable. But as Steve Brookstein famously sung, against all odds, we returned back to our upper class suburbs with 7 points.

In came Bishop, Kaizer, Moroney, Stefan for Stewie, Newman, Street and Shaw – the last 2 on 3rd team duty as they “had” to win. Presumably our game was not a “must win” one then? Whilst I don’t want to take the shine off a fantastic victory (for both 2nds & 3rds) – hope this does not become a regular occurrence, bearing in mind that we are far from safe in the league.

S.C.C.C 192-9 (Richards 86, Butler 40)
Darfield 193-3

On one of the hottest days of the year, the seconds travelled to Darfield in a must win game knowing that everyone had to win to ease relegation fears. The day started off poorly with people turning up late and the warm up being useless, which pretty much set up the tone for the day.

Match reports Season 2008 Second Team

2nd team hammered at Houghton Main

8th June 200830th November -0001 Bully 1 Comment Barnsley, Darfield, Doncaster Town, Hallam, Houghton Main, Rotherham, Wath, Whitley Hall

The second team travelled to Houghton Main on Saturday badly needing a performance, never mind a victory, following last week’s defeat against Wath. Sadly, neither happened and we suffered a humiliating defeat at the hands of a newly promoted side.
