Totals include non-Essex games edit

I've updated the totals today to the end of 2015, following the precedent of using the total games from Cricket Archive (e.g. f-c games at Chelmsford 347 to end of 2014, increased to 355 to 2015). However, this doesn't agree with the note at the top of the list which states "Only matches played by Essex CCC at the grounds are recorded in the table." The non-Essex games noted at the bottom are also included in the total - should the figures be corrected or the note at the top? --Bcp67 (talk) 21:57, 7 December 2015 (UTC)Reply

Most used First Class venue edit

As Chelmsford (397) is closing in on beating Leyton (407) as the most used First Class venue, the main artticle will need a tidy up, that being said it won't be until early 2024 in the current format.Statto74 (talk) 12:02, 25 July 2022 (UTC)Reply

Looks like it will overtake Leyton in either the second or third game of the 2024 season. There are seven championship home games scheduled for 2023 plus a first-class game against Ireland. Chelmsford might end this season on 406 first-class Essex games depending on weather and any change of status of the Ireland game. Bcp67 (talk) 14:39, 30 January 2023 (UTC)Reply
And that point has arrived - Chelmsford takes over this Friday, 19 April. Bcp67 (talk) 17:31, 16 April 2024 (UTC)Reply
