I choose Neil Pickup.

What does he do anyway? Apparently he's studying something at university and coaching kids.

I work 9-5 and don't get home until 7, so you uni people can shove it. ;) Although I don't know how much time is required, nor do I have any real experience with running a sim effectively, along with the whole work thing along with being involved with site management at other various sites, which often leaves me just wanting to come home and relax. For these reasons, I'm unsure if I'm really up for such a task. Just how much time is required, Liam?

I nominate Håkon & Pickup.

I shave yearly and bathe once a week. It shall own your life. :ph34r:


Ok, that may not be entirely true...
It takes a couple of hours per day if you get good at it.

I don't think I'll have time for this, then, outside possibly the weekends. You'll find a lot of my posting is done while at work, and I can't do the simming there.

I'd nominate Hakon, did a very good job with grade cricket, right kind of credentials for this kind of thing, IMHO.

The question is whether he can handle both GC and Dev League cricket though.

Whoa, 9-5 - massive day.

Looking at my non-existent time table, and the fact that I need a 2:2 to get into a PGCE, suggests that I might be able to do something this season.

However PGCE starts in September, workload increases muchly, and free time vanishes. I'd be a short-term fix.

I think I said it on another thread, but definitely Hakon & Pickup. Outside of those two, no one else really comes to mind? Might be missing someone though.

It is when you live over an hour away from your work and often have to work late and have to cook your own dinners since you live alone. Sucks. =/ I liked it a lot more when I was on something like 9:45 to 5:45, that extra time made all the difference to the traffic. Either way, I'd give a lot if I could fit an extra two hours into my day. But this is pretty off topic, I'm just having a gripe. ;) Too much going on at work lately. Thank God for this place, gives me something to do inbetween emails. :p

Thanks for the nomination, but I have nowhere near enough time to do the job - I couldn't even manage 3-4 hours for ALFTA this week, so 1-2 hours a night is out!
