Season ends in a fine draw
Friday Sep 2 v Ex Blues at West Wickham, Kent
Ex Blues 167- 8 (Kumar 5-31, Grimes 1-19, Pearce 1-25)
LSCC 164- 7 (Mayhew 67, Griffiths 23). Match Drawn
Sitting here writing the match report with the rain pouring down outside I realise how lucky we were to have glorious sunshine…
Not so gentlemanly
Gents of West London 266 – 5 (Berkeley 3-34)
LSCC 126 (Berkeley 29, Wathan 15)
It was an inauspicious start. The Barge forgot the scorebook and, for all we know, it is now coloured in, torn up and the pages of history are stuck on his fridge…
Trains, no planes, automobiles, scandal and intrigue!
Amidst the backdrop of arrests, resignations and suspicions with the on-going News International revelations, the London Saints Cricket club, and groupies, set off on its first tour to mainland Europe in its 31st year.
Belgium/Luxembourg Cricket tour
Some reminders of London Saints’ fine body of men conquering Europe!

An eventful day’s cricket saw London Saints draw victory in Coldharbour for the year in a row in a thoroughly entertaining game.
Coldharbour: 122 all out (Berkeley 4-34, Thomas 3-27)
London Saints: 123 for 8 (Van Marle 31, Jones 25)
Back down to earth
London Saints Cricket Club’s bright start to the Summer came to an abrupt end as Sunderland made light work of a reasonably easy target.
London Saints 123 all out (Chalmers 37, JG 18)
Sunderland 124 for 1 (GVM 1-25)
at Old Habs, Sunday 26th June
Trevor May-who?
Newly retired batsman Trevor Mayhew turned up to watch LSSC’s tricky tie against Cincinatti. His brother Andy, over from Tokyo, was one of many who contributed to a fantastic win.
Nelson Cup hopes washed away
The Nelson Cup reverted to it’s traditional 3 team format but the skipper’s came up with an unusual rain effected schedule – alas no silverware for London Saints!
Cricket stories: Jack goes home!
London Saints’ favourite Aldershot fan, Andy ‘Jack’ Jones gave is all on the pitch for LSCC – and as it turned out, off it too!
LSCC off to a winner!

Gents – 146-6 35 overs (Nanton 3-28)
LSSC – 149-6 32.3 overs (Jack 51, Dunn 44, Paltrow 15)
