Newcastle AND Leeds? Surely they won't get full grounds at both?

I think Leeds may be one of the few places where this will work properly.

I'm curious as to how it will cope with running alongside the counties in the T20 blast? Seems a bit much to have two domestic competitions doesn't it? Also whether the fact that England test players won't be playing much.

Apparently it will only last a fortnight. I can't see the necessary fanaticism being generated, particularly in south east corner of the country, where Kent have to pretend to be part of Hampshire.

I could buy us (Essex) being part of London - I could get genuinely excited about that - but we're instead a feeder to some ungodly Surrey/Middlesex hybrid.

Shall I explain again how far right off the Surrey/Middlesex + Essex thing can fuck?
