I'm a Durham fan, and after years of our sole aim being not to be bottom, all of a sudden there's a lot of expectation - inside and outside the club. It's how we deal with that that will be key this summer.

Hopefully Harmi Senior will be ripping up the CC this season, proving a point to his doubters [albeit he deserves those doubters] in the game. If Steve is on form then that will go a long way towards compensating for no Ottis. Even aside from him though, we have a fairly decent bowling attack.

Di Venuto on his Italian passport is a great stroke of luck for us, and hopefully he stays fighting fit all summer.
Diva was a legend for us and after all his loyal service his reward was getting showed the door which disgusted me. Was happy as larry to see him win a trophy. Real nice guy and top cricketer. We should have had him on a Kolpak but we treated him like shit.
