Nobody, its a sham of a competition, an affront to cricket and I hope it fails miserably.   The time wasted on this shite could have been allocated to red ball cricket.  The ECB are wankers.

I hope it does ok, but morphs in to a T20 franchise league over time to rival the big ones across the globe. I think the new format is unnecessary.
In the current climate where England are already struggling for good red ball players, it's madness to me to have both the Hundred and the T20 Blast. The county championship season keeps getting squeezed into a tighter schedule every year. Imo they should have scrapped the Blast and gone with the franchises in T20 form too.

This. They can stick it up their arse along with four day tests.

I'm not even going if I get offered free tickets.

I do not approve of this silly competition, I, of course reserve the right to do a 180 if kind of Lancashire get to the final.

You can have a T20 franchise league and a T20 competition IMO. Not all countries do it, but some do. For example, India has the IPL and the Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy both at T20 comps. It also fits in the Ranji Trophy and the Vijay Hazare Trophy in their season. Problem for England is the season is shorter than most due to shit weather so they try and cram everything in around each other as well as playing far too many internationals.

Didn’t see any of it but sounds like it was a good game. CA will be pleased with the 41,000+ crowd as others haven’t been as good as they’d hoped they would be.

Reinventing the wheel again competition. Doesn’t excite but I’ll go with the Southern Brave as latitudinally they are my closest franchise.
