Only just clocked it today but I see a nice big flag taken by a County fan to the test match at Port Elizabeth. It has the Rising Sun printed on it, hope that's The Rising Sun at High Cross, my old local.

It formed a lovely backdrop to Mark Wood fielding in the deep at 128-8.

Ironically it was two flags down from an English Swindon flag.

A certain Craig Redmore I do believe.

Great win as well

Newport Fugitives cricket boys who follow the County I think ??

It's always a cracking atmosphere with the Barmy army

That could explain the Rising Sun flag then,both pubs on the top road in Rogie and about 5-10 minutes walk apart.

You must be the guy who played for the Cuckoos in midfield and began your career with the mighty Rogie Thirds.

Trust me .... Craig Redmore went out on his own.

It’s another Dai John, Billy’s son who used to live up on High Cross Rd by the canal. Played cricket for the Fugies too.

Right,two Dave Johns from top road Rogie.
