About us

A very warm welcome to the Glorious Gazette.

This is the new home for supporters who believe that county cricket deserves analysis, deeper storytelling, and a platform that treats the game with the seriousness and affection it has earned over generations.

Gloucestershire cricket has always carried its own identity: gritty, skilful, proudly unfashionable, and capable of producing moments that stay with you long after the final ball.

Yet across the county circuit, journalism is shrinking. Fewer reporters on the ground means fewer questions asked, fewer stories told, and fewer opportunities for supporters to stay connected to the club they care about.

The national conversation has narrowed, and too often the county game is treated as background noise rather than the beating heart of English cricket. The Glorious Gazette in association with CounterPress exists to push back against that trend.

Here, you’ll find thoughtful match analysis, match previews, long‑form features, Player interviews, and much more. No clickbait, no recycled press releases, no pretending that county cricket doesn’t matter. We’re here because it does.

Whether you’re a die‑hard follower at Nevil Road, a new found watcher, or someone rediscovering their love for Gloucestershire cricket, this space is for you.

Subscribe, explore, and join a community determined to keep the county game alive, visible, and properly told.
