Somerset bleating about them not being ruthless enough to win the title. Not one mention of congratulations to Warwickshire at all, despite the fact that we only lost one game........yeah it was an unlikely win but 5 wins out of 6 from any team is going to put them near the top of the table.

I used to like Somerset but over the last few seasons I have come to realise that the fans are insular, rude 6 fingered twats who think it is all about them. The players seem to be following suit.

Most posters have seen us win 6 titles in the last 30 years or so without bragging about it.

Not the worst start

I'd be impressed if they drew with Notts and Somerset, fair play.

Yeah, I did separate the sentences for you!

Somerset side looks a bit heavy on the batting, especially with Overton coming in at 8. Gregory can bat also.

Looking at that Surrey lineup, if they click they could easily get at least a draw from Notts.

Lost the toss again!

Notts & Somerset both lost the toss as well so no advantage gained.

Surprised that Leics are going to have a bat

Great win, 3 on the trot.

Best thing was dropping Davies and bringing Kai Smith in........nothing against Davies but it was a season overdue.

Sussex are 50 ahead with 4 wickets to go moving into the 3rd day. Yorks holding Somerset up 139 ahead with 4 wickets to get.

We are in a good spot here but it does look as though batting conditions are better everywhere this morning.

I would bring Suthar on early to see if he can get a breakthrough

We are title contenders in name only.

A phony title challenge that would have been buried during this game had it lasted another days play.

Attack is not good enough, batting is not good enough but people seem happy that we are 'up there'.

I cannot think of another county that would guarantee Davies playing time.

Out of the T20 after 5/6 games. Out of the One day cup after 5 games.......never a real contender for the County Championship.

Hotel is coming along nicely though and that is all the club cares about, another cash cow opportunity.

Much better over from Bamber, he did indeed tighten his line up

Bloody hell

2 poor overs from Bamber to open up there. Never had to play at anything 1st up & then opened the buffet for the 2nd.......he need to tighten up

That is as fortunate a knock from Haynes as you will see but why did it take so long to get Booth on with his extra yard of pace?

False shots aside, there are too many 4 balls being bowled.

Helpful conditions & these are 1 down scoring at a reasonable rate.

Good win in the end but that wicket by Barnard opened the door up. OHD clever bowling to finish them off.

Not impressed with our bowling (leaving out young Taylor). Lintott is bowling too short, Yates erratic.

We look like all that we are trying to do is pop it on a length pretty straight and hope that Surrey hole out as Sibley did.

ETA: Better that from Barnard, all 3 balls fuller & we have our 5th wicket.

Hopefully we can make more inroads now.

13 overs left, time to give it some welly & get the run rate up towards 6.5/7 per over

They can afford to bowl Botham & Vic Marks at their current age and will still win at a canter.

Somerset have several key injuries also but they seem to put out competitive teams.

11 years since we won a white ball competition and we are further away from a trophy now than I can remember.

Nobody loses their place, coaches just seem to go on & on. Nobody seems accountable at Edgbaston, all they are interested in is taking more money off the fans and corporate projects.

I will also not be going to a one day game this year and that will be the 2nd year running without a match at all. Lots seem to doing the same.

3rd giveaway

2 down, Jani with a nothing shot.

Davies bingo now..........I reckon he will get 8 runs before chipping one to mid on.........he is doing his best, nearly went there.

At least the table will look familiar tonight with both Gloucs & Lancs well on their way to wins.

And here we go, under pressure straight from the off.

It is just not good enough

I have had to turn the sound off. I cant listen to how good Lammonby & Goldsworthy are when they are bang average players in reality. Mind you, we always seem to do a great job in helping their averages out.

Hopefully Lintott can find a couple of wickets because this has gone from us having decent control to over 5 an over quite quickly.

Taylor has been a bit unlucky & Taz Ali again just looks a little off it. Some indifferent fielding.
