User:Skateramp/Lanercost Spitfires

The Lanercost Spitfires are an invitational XI touring cricket team, formed in 2009. The brainchild of team captain Rory Van Dollard, the Spitfires are a carefully selected squad of players of varying attitudes from all corners of England.

The Spitfires played their first fixture on 20 July 2009, a Twenty20 international friendly against the Hungarian National Cricket Team.

It is expected that the Spitfires will play their second and final fixture in Bucharest, Romania on 31 October 2009 against the Romanian National Cricket Team. After months of anticipation and press rumour, Director of Cricket Rory Van Dollard announced the squad in late July 2009.

The famous Lanercost Spitfires 2009 for the Bucharest tour: RV Dollard (c), KN Fosh, CW Fosh, RY Dizzle, PCJ Ritson, MJ Scud, DK Shagger, Gt Grimo, R Pizzle, R Jackson, N Forster, KY LeMay.

The Lanercost Spitfires don a Tangerine kit with not too much sleeve and a maroon trim.
