| Neil Bainton cricket umpire retires | |

| Just seen on social media that long serving ECB umpire Neil | |
| Bainton has retired to take up a new role as ECB professional | |
| umpires manager. | |
| Here is the link for the job that was advertised: | |

| Looks like it will be to oversee the appointments, progression, | |
| coaching, assessing and pathways of umpires in both the men�s | |
| and women�s game. | |

| I�ve known Neil for nearly 40 years and seen his progression | |
| from club umpire to first class umpire. Having seen him just | |
| recently, I can confirm that he is to oversee the professional | |
| umpires panel relating to development and appointments. | |
| Considering his non first class playing background, Neil has had | |
| a superb career on field and was held in high regard by his | |
| fellow officials and players alike. | |
| I�m sure that he will take on the next stage of his life with | |
| the same professionalism and dedication he has shown hitherto. | |

| Met him a couple of times a few years ago when he was umpiring | |
| with the late Jeremy Lloyds, a very friendly guy with a great | |
| passion for the game of cricket, i wish him every success in his | |
| future role. | |
