Interesting that new team names are possible.
The Birmingham City Knights sounds pretty good to me, playing in a Royal Blue and White kit, maybe even the traditional "Penquin" broad white stripe.

With the new Sports Quarter stadium, it would not be a surprise to see some the the games played at the new stadium, especially as Knighthead Capital are part owners of the team.

There's as much chance of that new stadium appearing as there is of Alex Davies captaining England!

We will see!

Sadly Alex D has already captained England Lions so madder things, and players of equal unsuitability and lack of talent have captained England.

I've just written my now traditional letter to the club, as a member, requesting that the 16.6 over team franchise be kicked out of the club shop as they aren't Warwickshire (or England); and all references to the orange (#F2673B) cuckoos be removed from the club website and club press releases as they detract from actual Warwickshire teams playing in their 50 over one-day competitions.

I know I'm pissing in the wind. But hey-ho.

Just an observation that we are now in the height of summer and this board has gone as quiet as it is in the depths of winter - because there is NO CRICKET BEING PLAYED. How did this happen?
