Hampshire and Nottinghamshire supporters at the first County Championship match held on the Isle of Wight since 1962, which Hampshire went on to win by 244 runs. This is a telephoto view taken from the grassy bank on the Blackwater Road side of the ground. It was taken between overs, which is why some are looking out towards play and others are not. Fashion notes: that's my green sweater on the back of the chair on the right of the back row. I am not responsible for Ray's Hawaiian shirt (centre back row).
