	Whither English cricket?
		Club cricket is an imperfect nursery for the professional game, and those youngsters who do come through swiftly become enmeshed in a structure that cultivates tenured mediocrity.
		At Milnrow, a club on the outskirts of Rochdale, two miles from the Yorkshire border, the game against Unsworth was swiftly abandoned so that everybody could get to the bar and tell tales of the deeds they would have performed.
		English cricketers are constantly told they are too soft, that players pick up wages for aspiring only to mediocrity, and when Leicestershire supply unanswerable evidence that one club at least are fighting the good fight, they are greeted with public indifference.

		The subject of much debate on it's inception, the club felt from the start that the ball stop fence was too small, but the council didn't agree.
		The club house has evolved over the years and has come a long way since the first brick building in 1970.

		After a downpour the night before the wicket at Milnrow looked a nightmare for batters, and when Mark Hooson won the toss with Milnrow's stand in skipper, ex-villager Mad Dog Matt Dawson, there was no doubt about the decision to bowl first.
		Milnrow's wickets began to tumble and when their Pro went in his 40's there was little left to come from the Milnrow lads falling to 95 all out.
		However Shaun Marsh's presence at the keys was just overwhelming for the Milnrow bowling attack hitting 50 not out to give Walsden a 7 wicket victory.
