Braintree beaten in thriller
5:24pm Monday 12th May 2008
Braintree (246 for six) were beaten by Dunmow (247 for five) by five wickets in Marshall Hatchick Two Counties League division four.
A magnificent century by Dunmow's Andy Stoddard saw the visitors gain victory in an exciting match at Panfield Lane.
Half-centuries by Braintree's Simon Jones (79) and Jamie Foyster (53) had set a challenging target of 247 for the visitors.
But Stoddard's innings of 108, which included six sixes, was the difference between the two sides.

Rising cost of fuel is hitting farmers hard
Gordon Brown and Alistair Darling have finally scrapped October’s planned 2p rise in fuel duty, but that will not sort out the current high prices – especially as that duty increase will probably hit next April. In the last of our features on Facing the Fuel Crisis, the Gazette looks at the problems facing Essex’s farmers – and why two of our biggest supermarkets are not feeling the pinch. Essex's wheatfields might not be on the same scale as Kansas, but they still take up nearly 250,000 acres.
