Last season when the County Championship ended in the gloom and dank autumn mist I said as a joke that they'd keep stretching the season out until it finished on Halloween. I know there are extenuating circumstances, but it's ridiculous even so.

The Plan going forward is for the season to start in the last week in march and finish in the 1st week in October.

Obviously when we have past Covid
