Village Idiots

Two extended members of the CICC family join the idiots to answer long-burning questions such as "Is cricket a real sport?", "Condom or Cricket Bat?" and "Which player received a fine for making his better half listen to his episode of Village Idiots on a Saturday morning... on her Birthday?"

Everyone's favourite dictator FINALLY joins the Village Idiots to talk about running around like a spaniel in the field, the elusive orange cap, and how watching a Clapham In match is exactly the same as England at Lord's.  

The last person to captain CICC in an actual cricket match puts the stumps in the wrong place and joyously runs through all things CICC, including one hell of a game of (not) Guess Who? and... cricket is back!

Blowing in to this week's edition is the patriarch of the family responsible for providing any and all respectable creativity to Village Idiots. Topics include: French cricket, ska-punk, and teams that are also weirdly the name of their location.

We sit down with a respected and loved veteran of the club to discuss elaborate pranks, Clapham In's not-so-humble early days, and keeping the spirit of cricket alive through embarrassing stat updates. #islanghamlistening

Ex-Vice-Captain, Joel Plaja, indulges the Idiots in discussions of favourite tours that Josh hasn't been on, the influence of follicly fortunate fathers, and nothing else because everyone was hungry for Lunch. Enjoy.

Yes, it's Josh's worst nightmare come true as we sit down with our Fixtures Secretary (and the only other Australian currently in the team) to talk about trains (of course), commentators, and the perpetual intrapersonal warfare of cricket. Enjoy!

Current Finesmaster, Ed Gregory, sits down with the Idiots to discuss the greatest innings ever played (for CICC), favourite fines, and how it's possible to start a season with 3 ducks in 2 days. Enjoy.

For our second episode, we sit down with the man whose sum of nicknames is only rivalled by that of his injuries. Enjoy.

We are part of a world where competence means nothing and it really is all about "how you play the game". This world is village cricket. When we think of the long summer months, we think of traipsing halfway across London with a heavy kit bag, excited for another chance at glory, yet fully prepared for an afternoon of dire disappointment. We sit down with the people who experience these failures with us, and ask them why they always come back for more. This is episode one - Dad.
