They also pick out the positives of United's 4-3 loss away at Brentford, and Nik reviews a day out at Old Trafford watching Manchester United Women qualify for the Champions League.
Six!!!
55-0
55-0
Massive bottle job from Warwicks if they don't manage to beat Hampshire.
Come on Lancs!
Come on Lancs!
56/0 off 8...
Once we get to 4.00pm, then there is a maximum of 16 overs left?
I think so - the game is on 5Live Sports Extra if you want to follow. When the final hour starts, the radio will announce it.
we need 131 off how many overs?
Come on Lancy, about time we won the damn thing.

Minimum of 16 Spoony
Tough ask Frosty, but we've got 10 wickets in hand...I think we may just get over the line.
Moore gets 50 off of 37
Having said, that our RR's close to 8.
I reckon Lancs are favourites now - Hampshire are 275/5 at the Rose Bowl. Only 8 an over needed, which today is not beyond teams over 15 overs or so.
Actually, I calculate 121 off 16 (at least) at 7.56. Heavy favourites I reckon.
Yeah, anyhow I'm watching the cricket on Cricinfo...teletext style.
It's good, jah!
It's good, jah!
16 overs & 18 minutes to go, I guess max 20 overs say?
IT'S ON!
IT'S ON!
5 runs per over? No problem. You need to keep an eye on the Rose Bowl I think just in case of a late collapse. I think they still have over 20 overs remaining there.
Lancashire will win it.
First wicket down, lbw
This is hard. It's like watching United. Who'd have thought it could all come down to the last hour of the season.
I say that, the second has fallen now, both openers gone - 135/2.
2 down... 16 overs left.
Squeaky arse time.
Squeaky arse time.
Bugger Moore out now
76 off final 16 overs now, with two new batsman, eight wickets left.
Warwickshire need a miracle. I reckon if Lancs hold their nerve it's a done deal.
Edit: 2 down

Ours to lose, sensible cricket will get us over the line.
I'm getting nervous. Waited many years for this moment.
Last hour, 16 overs left
I remember the last time we won the championship.
Almost 80 years ago eh?
66 needed.
Almost 80 years ago eh?
66 needed.
I'm getting all sentimental about players like Lloyd and Engineer, all the great hopes and expectations, from when I was a kid. This is getting scary now.
I've enjoyed our early 90s side the most. Proper exciting to watch.
You're older than I thought...
4 more!
Done & dusted this. 
Hampshire lose a wicket at the Rose Bowl.
Crowd risking a song.
Hants lose a wicket but hopefully too late
Hants lose a wicket but hopefully too late
Hampshire lose another wicket at the Rose Bowl, out for a golden duck!
How nervous is this?
