Fantastic signing for the club - 2 year contract with an option of a third year.

Having such a player around will be huge for the young players at the club.

Had to do a double take when I saw that on TV earlier. Progress in both cricket and football over the last 12 months 'http://www.dcfcfans.co.uk/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':)' />

Erm, excuse me,

Won't he be off playing for India or where ever he comes from all summer.

Isn't it infact the truth, that, your honour, said player will only be available for 7 games, if in fact fit.

He's West Indian, not Indian. There is a triangular ODI series in the West Indies next summer which lasts for 2 weeks, and they have no other tours or series during the entire English summer. Seeing as Chanderpaul only now plays test cricket for the West Indies, that's not a problem.

The following year, there are 5 home West Indies test matches, but one of the series is against Bangladesh, and the Windies usually play their youngsters against them.

s I rest my case, your Honour.
