It is a great pleasure to welcome Tony Hutton back to the team of bloggers. As many of you will know Tony was one of three pcws along with Brian Senior and the late Mick Bourne who were persuaded by Peter Davies to keep diaries of their cricket watching which were published in 2007 under the title 'Off the beaten track'. By 2009 Tony and Peter had been joined by Brian Sanderson and the written word became electronic with the first posting made by Peter in December 2008. That was the first of over 1300 postings to date.
I'm sure Brian will be pleased as I am to have Tony share the load, especially from someone so well known, well informed and well respected in the world of professional cricket watchers. Tony has sent me two pieces which I post unabridged. Enjoy.

About the project:
This blog was originated in 2008 as an offshoot of the separate website ‘The cricket history of Calderdale and Kirklees’ which covered in depth the histories of every league cricket club in these two areas of West Yorkshire. Unfortunately this site fell into disuse although there are now plans to reinstate it by the Yorkshire Cricket Foundation.
Meanwhile the blog has gone its own way and has expanded into a review of cricket at all levels throughout the north of England, both past and present. The three current bloggers are all Yorkshire based. Tony Hutton and John Winn are both members of Durham and Yorkshire county clubs and Brian Sanderson is an active member of the Yorkshire archives committee.
We have now recruited Lancashire based Mike Latham, well known in both cricket and rugby league circles, to provide an ever wider coverage of cricket from the north.
