Just a matter of interest, how close are the members to having enough signatures to force a SGM?

Hello All

Just a quick update, currently I only have 12 members down supporting a SGM, 238 short of the 250 required. But I haven't given up, I'm hopeful there are other people getting names. If anybody else would like to sign, please message me (click on the message link to the left of this post) and if anybody knows other members and feels OK mentioning this to them, that would be great. Have a good weekend.

Surrey are supporting the retention of a 14 match County Championship but will be voting for a reduction in T20 Blast games.
They say of the County Championship: "We have seen crowds double in just five years here at the Kia Oval and huge numbers of younger fans come through the gates and learn to love the format." That's not something that Warwickshire could say.

What are our attendance stats for the cc games at home this season, do you happen to know? Are they down on the 2021 season or are they more or less the same?

Attendances have not been high - just a few hundred at the Somerset game.

I did see something on the "Grumbler" substack showing Warwickshire attendances for the county championship as 17,000 in 2019 and 17,000 in 2024. So very low, 600 a day if you assume 28 days play, a bit higher allowing for rained off days etc, but, seemingly, not getting any lower.
