In reply to Balladeer.

Fifth columnists, both counties.

The fiends.

Lulling poor little Nottinghamshire and Lancashire into false senses of security.

But why Lancs started playing for draws as soon as they reached the top of the table is anybody’s guess.

They’ll be spitting bile in the Old Trafford Pit of Hate if Lancs really do end up dropping.

In reply to Howe_zat.

We seem to use the term – and variations thereof – surprisingly frequently on this website.

Are there three words that can begin a point more effectively than ‘can’t be bothered’?

In reply to A P Webster. 'Hampshire and Surrey have volunteered to keep the rest of us up,' eh Ged? Surrey got bored of playing Atlas halfway through the season; meanwhile Hampshire are playing The Great Escape 2: The Re-Escapening. Oh how hindsight makes fools of us all. Yorkshire are going to win the Championship again.

Lancashire getting relegated is as inevitable as Lancashire getting promoted was last year. Being the hipster and/or eternal pessimist that I am, I've been worried about relegation since June 1st, when Lancashire were joint top.
