Yorkshire are finished. Nobody coming through and England picking their favourites.

Essex will be the team to watch next season.

Yorkshire finished are they? Ha! As soon as anyone else gets anywhere NEAR the amount of Championship titles that Yorshire have then they can talk. Until then....shut up

Yep, Strauss trying to do his beloved Middlesex a favour by not allowing Bairstow to play against them in a title decider. Bairstow has not even played that much cricket of late, he sat out most of the ODI stuff. Yorkshire must be fuming, and a big game deserves to see the best players playing.

I wonder who we will get as coach.

Lendl Simmons wud be a good choice.

Come on Yorkshire. One final push against the crusaders tomorrow.
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Lendl? You must mean his father Phil Simmons? Lendl is still playing and is just 31 years old.

Thanks for correcting me Billy.

Yes i meant Phil Simmons


Only just realised they are playing.
Siders signs a new contract. Great player but surely we need to start looking at the future.

Not just Yorks affected. Lancs couldn't pick anderson and butler and the way its looking on day 2 they are going down.

what an end to the season. Somerset finishing 3 games in 3 days. Yorks on the ropes and wobbling but find a little extra to keep them in the game. Middlesex may have to make a decision today to force a win?

Don't think Middlesex have enough time in the game to set York's a total. Their best chance is to set something like 6 an over and force a risky run chase. York's clear favourite. At the bottom lancs have shown no backbone whatsoever. The big guns Peterson, butler and Anderson are missing and Wagner not been replaced. The rest not good enough. Relying on Durham getting a draw v hants to stay up. I think.

Roland Jones you beauty

Really proud of Yorkshire efforts especially Tim Bresnan who did not deserve to be on the losing team.

Looks like Andrew Strayss decision to not allow Yorkshire England players to play cost Yorkshire dearly.

Overall Middlesex deserve becuase they have been unbeaten but they did have a massive helping hand.

Nonetheless, im really proud of Yorkshire's effort.

We'll be back and we keep improving especially in the shorter formats.

To me the contrived declaration brought the game into disrepute. It's cheating. The captains should be given bans,both teams should be fined and also deducted the points earned from the game and the title given to Somerset.
