With the cricket season suspended until July 1 at the earliest, it has been a frustrating summer so far for everybody connected with the County - especially as the sun has barely stopped shining.

Thursday's online forum, which starts at 6pm, gives the main men at the club the chance to let the supporters know the latest news on what may or not be happening over the coming weeks or months, both on the playing and non-playing front.
