Gutted by this.

Consistantly our best bowler for last 5 years. With Broad probably on his way to, I fear for the County's future.

Masters was the only one you could count on to do the business.

Probably another Kolpack to fill the void?!

Talking of Kolpack signings, what the hell happened to Arno Jacobs? Signed from Scotland where he was the overseas player earlier this season, plays about 4 games and has never been seen again! Not sure he even gets into the 2nd X1.
 
Pretty gutted too, at this rate we'll be struggling to put an XI for next season.

With no dis-respect to Masters, hes almost 30, bowls around 75mph and this will be his third county. While the likes of Broad are always destined for better things, You think he would be the type of player we can keep hold of.

I'm not entirely sure whats happened to Jacobs. I suspect his poor performances have meant he was left out. We lose money from the ECB every time we play a Kolpak so he was probably given less of a chance than an English lad might have.

I agree, but he's left for family reasons so good luck to him.
 
He's hardly going to say he left for more money is he?!

True, but Tim Boon and county have been quite fair in their comments so I think there's some truth to it. They even announced it on their website, which is unusual ;)
 
Masters has been Mr reliable for Leicestershire over the last few seasons. Will be sorry to see him go. Bit worried about our bowling attack for next season if we lose Broad as well.
 
Wonder if he'll play tomorrow against Essex, his team for next season!
