Hello my lovelies, with the horrible weather, multiple pricks in the arm and my advancing years I haven’t been about that much and had to watch the Cricket on the TV, I have to admit I love that Michael Holding, voice like velvet, hmmmmmmm. Anyway, I recently heard a rumour that my boys have been...Read More
As summer has finally arrived, and I’ve had both of my jabs I thought it I’d head down to foxfields for what was the first home game of the season, in week 7 no less! Bloody rain. The coin was flipped and Harlestone looking at a dry and cracked wicket thought… we don’t fancy that,...Read More
Having had my jabs (perks of being elderly), I was happy to venture over to Brixworth to see my lovely Fox’s play their first game of the season. I was even happier to see a svelte looking Ian Peterson rock up to umpire, as there was finally someone for me to flirt with 🥰 as...Read More
Afternoon my foxes (and those readers from afar) I arrived at Foxfields for only the second time for a league game this year and felt a bit strange and wary this time around. There was an ominous gloom in the air and I must say I nearly blew away as I set up my chair...Read More
Good day my dear Foxes… (and, so I hear, those further afield). Saturday was our first ever fixture against a Wellingborough Town side, and you boys packed me up all nice and warm and transported me over to a rather cloudy and dreary field in the middle of Higham Ferrers, the ground looked half decent,...Read More
Hello my lovelies, We’re back for another week of sunshine and sanitising! This time my mighty Foxes headed off into the villages and came up against a Braunston side who had enjoyed a solid start to the season. To my surprise, it seems as though the lawnmower had broken earlier in the week as a...Read More
Finally, cricket was returning to the Foxfields fortress with my Foxes taking on St Michaels CC not to be confused with St Michaels Bugbrook who are a different team, apparently. Luckily, I checked with the club on the Tea situation (I love a Foxes tea) and was advised I would need to bring my own...Read More
Do you know it has been nearly a year since I have seen my beloved Foxes win a match! After week ones abysmal showing, my optimism was low. One change to the team, my new favourite Frenchman was out and replaced with Ollie. El Capitan Tony was so busy have a chin wag with the...Read More
Well unlike some of the boys I made it down to my socially distanced spot on the boundary in time for the Foxes first game of the season, it’s been a long time coming and I honestly didn’t think I’d get to see any competitive foxes cricket this year . The air was ripe with...Read More
Did you miss me? I know I have missed you.. Self isolation at my age is no fun and there are only so many times you can watch Miss Marple and Poirot, so you can imagine my joy when I heard you boys were having a “little knock about” this weekend and that funny Mr...Read More
