    Makes sense to just start straight away, I'd have thought.

    Another thing...Can it be a general Cricket thread?...A few of us like to discuss Hants matches too.

    Again, I'm too biased here to comment either way ;)

    I'm wondering whether one should create a thread for one Test, then close it and start another for the following Test. Or just create an Ashes Test and renew it if/when it reaches 1000 posts, sort of like we treat Beefy's.

    I think with Hants it's no great problem because it's just a little bit of discussion every week or so, problem here is that we're churning through three or four pages of Ashes discussion in a day's play and completely dominating the thread. I think most of the year it's fine having the cricket discussion mixed in, but for the Ashes and possibly World Cups (?) a break-away thread would be good.

    If that's a challenge for me to increase my Hants output on here, I'll gladly take it up ;)

    Starting with Surrey away tonight!

    I think a general cricket thread then close it when it gets to 20000............

    I don't mind, it being summer and there is little Saints news, even though the club is doing splendidly to give us news, but there is a Not606 County Cricket forum. I suppose we could title it, The Ashes & Hampshire Cricket Summer Thread. How about that..?
