The Greatest Cricket Club In The World
Thanks for Coming (TFC) is a podcast loosely based on cricket and everything that goes with it.
Those long two-hour commutes to an away day to bowl two overs and not be needed with the bat, another TFC in the books, but the sun’s shining and you’re having some beers with some blokes you kind of like from time to time, and life doesn’t feel all that bad.
If that sounds like your kind of summer, then you’ve found the right podcast.
Our hosts have both experienced a TFC or two in their time, but can now be found opening the bowling in the Surrey Premier League for rising stars Ploughmans CC.

Hello, welcome and Thanks for Coming to the 2022 cricket season - it’s going to be electric.

This podcast reeks of runs, with all of our guests hitting tons at the weekend, but one was actually against us, and did he kiss the badge?

Thanks for Coming to our Tour episode, where we discuss the Plough’s recent venture to Wiltshire.
Basing themselves in Salisbury, our strapping tourists travelled far and wide to take on local teams, enjoy local cuisines, and do their best to keep the pub economy afloat during a global pandemic.
We saw many legends made before our eyes from the Coach Captain to the Bookmaker’s Purse, and in true Ploughmans’ style won the Wiltshire series 3-1.
Our host is joined by a tour veteran, a tour specialist and a tour enthusiast to talk you through the events which they can best remember.
And don’t worry, despite there being a podcast about it, what goes on tour certainly stays on tour, aside some lively orange polos.

Our hosts are of course Plough’s finest, the most ferocious fast-paced opening bowling attack through Croydon up to Raynes Park and beyond. When they’re not knocking stumps out of the ground they’re sinking pints across Surrey and London.

This week, we had two washed out Sunday games, but not before we saw two very stylish 50s from two of Plough's top order batsmen. Most importantly however, not before the league side romped to an unlikely but stunning win, guided by some legendary individual performances. How important might this result be at the end of the year?
We then have some very special content for you, with Liam heading out to the Oval to chat to the strong Plough contingent about fantasy tips, and a load of other nonsense. Oh, and did he mention he's 'here outside the brown derby'?

This week, the lads ploughed on to 3 from 3 in the basking sun, and it was finally time for the batsmen to put on the big scores they’d been craving. One batsman in particular did more than that and also took a ton of wickets, oh, and he thinks he’s in the ploughs top 5 fielders too. Do you agree?
We have wonderful insight from popular new boy Leo Connolly and heroic servant of the club Chris Ovens, who both accompany the greatest fast bowling partnership through the weekends antics.

Thanks For Coming to Ploughmans Cricket Club, the greatest cricket club in the world on and off the pitch.
Formed in 1982 by a group of friends in a pub, Ploughmans has carried the same values through every over, game and season - a group of friends who enjoy each other’s company and also happen to play cricket.
The club consists of players of all backgrounds, occupations and varying levels of humour and is a safe space for anyone looking for a way to spend their weekends.
With games all over London and surrounding counties, and tours across Europe and further, Ploughmans has played and continues to play at some of the loveliest grounds around (as well as some of the less so).
Its committee are the heart of the club’s ethos, several friends who have attempted to grow up and may even grow old volunteering their time to provide as much cricket as possible for anyone who wants to play.
On this episode we hear from each of them about their time at the club and the journey that’s been taken from a pub team to the Premier League.
This is Ploughmans Cricket Club, Thanks For Coming.

In today’s episode we hear from The Mouse alongside fan-favourite, Ploughmans’ Most Improved Player of 2020, the West Aus spark, our very own Slider.
The League side look for shelter as a cover less pitch results in another rain affected result, while other sides look for the Alphas within their own team to help make decisions for the opposition.
A star-studded Plough Friendly XI ignite a rivalry against ‘Woohoo-Burn’ Narkovians, and one batsman hits a ton despite the rain clouds above.
Our hosts are of course the finest opening fast bowling partnership the world has ever seen, they’ve each had a TFC or two in their time but it won’t stop them donning the Ploughmans baggy and regularly taking a bagful across the county of Surrey for rising stars Ploughmans CC.

On this week’s podcast we hear from cricket’s cutest couple as they zoom in from their shared accommodation in north London to celebrate the better half’s in form batting.
The damp weather delays the league comeback, but allows for a bumper Sunday against two brilliant oppos - seeing one Woking bowler take a 5fer and the Dulwich Development boys give our Ploughmen a run for their money.

Thanks for Coming to the greatest podcast in the world produced by the Greatest Cricket Club in the World.
In this week’s episode we mark a few club records being broken; Ploughmans put out 5 sides for the first time in history, the 9th-wicket partnership is smashed, and we see one South African thump himself into the history books with the club’s second-highest batting score.
Said Saffer should also be expecting an invoice for damage after rocketing a ball back over the bowler’s head and through (yes, through) the wooden sight screen - leaving a nice cricket ball sized hole for the rest of his innings.
Our return to league cricket saw a nail biting finish as a hail-affected chase came down to needing a six off the final ball. We enjoyed it so much we did it all again the next day, this time role reversing with the oppo needing six to win off the last delivery.
The high scoring games meant a high scoring week in the Fantasy Cricket League with the club captain cashing in on his triple captain chip and left our own Podcast Producer sitting comfortably at the top of the table.
