Despite persistent overnight rain the Bartons was fit to host our opening home league match of the 2004 season against newly promoted Coalpit Heath. The game was the first to be played under the new regime of Byo/Stiff and saw the league debut of Smalls. Byo lost the toss and it was no surprise that we were asked to bat first on a damp wicket.

Things could not have got off to a worse start as Smalls was bowled with the first ball of the innings and a further 26 deliveries were bowled before the first run was scored. A battling partnership of 13 from 58 balls for the second wicket between Ian Nairn and Tampa was ended with the bizarre dismissal of Tampa (12) who was caught at cover after the ball had first hit his pad and then bounced onto his bat. Nairny (1) followed him back to the pavilion four balls later which left us on 13-3 after 10.2 overs. Boardy (8) and Stiff (8) then put us back on track with a swift 19 run partnership for the fourth wicket before both of them fell within six balls of each other which reduced us to a decidedly dodgy 32-5. A fantastic sixth wicket partnership of 53 from just 69 balls between Byo and Andy Nairn then lifted the whole teams spirits as we realised that runs could actually be scored on that pitch and it put the Coalpit bowlers on the back foot for the first time in the match. Nairny was eventually dismissed for 25 and Byo followed shortly afterwards for a true captains knock of 33. Huddy (11), Buckers (6) and Pazza (14) then added some useful runs at the end to bring the total up to a competitive 134 all out with 49 runs being added by the last four wickets. Butchy (1*) was the not out batsman at the end.

The Coalpit batsmen began the run chase carefully but they were reduced to 7-2 from the first eight overs as Andy Nairn and Pazza both bowled excellently. The third wicket partnership of 54 from 77 balls between the overseas professional Wayne Kylander and Vikash Patel swung the initiative back towards Coalpit but when Kylander (23) was caught behind by Stiff off Nairny the game changed and wickets fell steadily from that point on. Patel (40) added a further 13 runs for the fourth wicket with J Sienesi but after he was bowled by Huddy no other batsman looked comfortable against Nairny's pace and Huddy's nagging accuracy and the innings subsided to 92 all out in the 33rd over. Nairny ended up with the magnificent figures of 6-40, which took him past the 100 wicket milestone in 1st XI league matches in just his 30th match, Huddy ended up with figures of 3-5 in his five over spell and Pazza also bowled excellently to pick up figures of 1-20 from his 11 overs.
