  You jest
  
   "all they had to do ...  " 

   Notts have got a pretty good team so it's not really a surprise, after all 
with the 
   frustation of rain and so much play lost they where up for it and Lancs did a
   fairly good job, nearly denied them the last batting bonus point which would
   have been interesting as they'd have needed two bowling bonus points.
   Interesting would have been if Lancs had forfeited their first inning or 
declared
   when two wickets down but then things would have smelt fishy and Notts would
   have good cause to feel agrieved

   Of course if Somerset had got a better grip and bowled Durham out for less in
   the second innings they'd have won and none of this would have mattered.
   Even better would have been the Somerset result staying as it was and 
   Yorkshire winning against Kent, which they should have. They'd have then 
   finished on 216 points. Even if Notts had bowled Lancs out they would have
   only equalled that total. Wins would have been the same but Yorkshire would
   have lost less giving them the title so why did Yorkshire let it slip ...
