For Matty, and any Canon Frome, Ross players, or anyone else interested, here's the proposed line-up for next year:

Barnards Green (3rds and 4ths)
Birlingham
Canon Frome (subject I presume to them voting to join the WCL at their AGM!)
Hanley Castle & Upton
Himbleton
Old Elizabethans (3rds and 4ths)
Ross on Wye
Rushwick
Tenbury
Worcester Dominies & Guild

The champions will be automatically promoted to Division 3 and the 2nd placed team will have a playoff with the 2nd placed side in Division 4 North for the 3rd promotion spot to Division 3.

I'll go for a top 4 of Himbleton, Worcester Dominies, Canon Frome and Ross, in any order. Barnards Green 3rds and Rushwick to spring the odd surprise.

For those interested...

Div 2 2nd XIs

Chaddesley

On an aside, it will be quite something for us here at Monmouth to play a club like Eastnor next year, even if it is just a 2nd XI fixture.

Didn't you play them back in the '90s in the Marches? Nice ground and most of them are decent blokes.

Alot of yam-yam based sides in WCL Division 2 next year, looking forward to plenty of trips up the M50 and M5?!

Cheers or the info Stat. Hoping to bolster the batting next year so we can go up. I have a pack of crisps and a pickled egg a game on offer for any new batsmen.Proffesionalism has arrived in Worcs 4.

I can think of several Herefordshire-based batsmen who'd be very tempted by that offer Matty...

i think you would have a great chance of getting a result against that said eastnor side who have been very weak for a number of years. It is gd for second team cricket in the worcester league that the leagues float.

Any news on whether Cannon Fodder have voted to join the WCL at their AGM last night?

Good stuff, look forward to seeing how them and Ross get on next year. Sure that at least one of them will finish in the top 4 of Div 4 South.
