At this point I get the feeling this clown is just throwing random sound bytes out there to deflect away from how shit a job he's been making of preparing this side.

He can go now as far as I'm concerned.

I highly doubt bully boy Barton will change.

He's got off scott free there in my view. How the judge can say "you are not of previous good character" and then not jail him is rather baffling.

Fucking hell the leadership of this England side is utterly dillusional

Stokes and McCullum can go now in my view.

This technology should not exist.

But it does.

So the only hope now is to regulate it.

Doorslam it behind prohibitively expensive fences.

Force it's providers to check only licenced people are using it.

Penalise those that don't enforce checks.

Otherwise this becomes a disaster

I Fly in and out of Heathrow regularly. There simply isn't the drop off "congestion" that is being used to justify this hike.

This is about revenue generation only

A genuine question for Rob Key and the other "pigs at the trough" goons at the ECB

England are going to loose this by an innings.

Ashes lost before Christmas.

I dont think Stokes and McCullum survive this and be in charge on England this summer

Being run out on day 1 of a Test match is inexcusable in my view.

Especially given the game position.

Nope. Teams should not have to sacrifice an outfield player when the goal keeper fakes an injury

They should have to face 20 seconds for every minute the keeper is down (receiving faux treatment) with the goal keeper sat on a chair right on the half way line.
