Where is the money going because it’s not in these clubs or to the community. Stop bailing out businesses that give an inferior product or service, doesn’t matter if it’s a classic tradition or not

Now it’s a waste of time and money.

It looks like the market doesn’t think that cup match is worth what the club thinks it is.

The club has a choice. Drop the price & get something or stick to the price & get nothing.

You want a business to sponsor a selfish event that has the potential to have us go back into lockdown. The only one I can think of that will benefit would be testing lab.Every other businesses on this island suffers. Who else in their right mind would support this.

Maybe you know who could step up and do it , but then again maybe not a good idea. It would turn out to be a 2 day history revisionist political racist hate fest.

I just want my 2 days off and I don’t care which persons name is on the 2 days nor about a stupid cricket game! Enough of the “I’m poor” claims. If you can’t afford it don’t do it! But don’t worry a Government grant is on the way!
