But, unlike Vaughan, Hales etc., he has apologised for it. It doesn't excuse it, obviously, but at least he has acknowledged his mistake.

Already there are people who are acting like this negates what to happened to him. Racists gonna racist. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paid Members Cod Eye Posted November 19, 2021 Paid Members Share Posted November 19, 2021 The thing is, he has never, ever said he was totally innocent in all this. He's admitted he gave as good as he got "banter" wise, and has said things he himself regrets saying. So things like this was going to come out. It doesn't negate everything else though... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LariatTom Posted November 19, 2021 Share Posted November 19, 2021 In slightly better news for English cricket, CA have accepted the resignation of Tim Paine meaning that they need to appoint a new captain with 3ish weeks until the start of the Ashes. It will be interesting to see where they go with the captaincy with Cummins currently being VC. I'm sure the Smith debate will come up as to whether he's served punishment enough.. Potentially the distraction needed to give England a sniff of pulling off a result?

Paid Members Devon Malcolm Posted November 19, 2021 Paid Members Share Posted November 19, 2021 It's not really good news because Tim Paine is shit and now they'll probably pick a good keeper-batsman. I'm not sure the change of captain will make as much of a difference as we hope, but fingers crossed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paid Members ElCece Posted November 19, 2021 Paid Members Share Posted November 19, 2021 Tim Paine being stuck in the team was one of the things that gave me a slither of hope for the Ashes. Average gloves and shite bat. Only thing that could bring it back is if Lyon gets the captaincy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators PowerButchi Posted November 29, 2021 Author Moderators Share Posted November 29, 2021 (edited) Cricket is really hard to enjoy at the moment. Joe Root coin gout saying he texts Rafiq supporting him but doesn't remember any racism. Ashley aGiles saying the one thing we can all learn from is that there should be a second chance for Michael Vaughan. Excuse me while I watch old videos of Steve Watkin and Martin Bicknell.  I would say I'd hope we lose 5-0, but then the Aussies are sending dick pics to medics.  My favourite sport is a fucking mess.  Bring back Devon Malcolm. He'd twat them on the head.  Edited November 29, 2021 by PowerButchi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paid Members Devon Malcolm Posted December 8, 2021 Paid Members Share Posted December 8, 2021 Turned it off when Root got out. Should have turned it off after the first ball. Or before it, once Root decided to fucking bat or once I saw Broad and Anderson were both left out. England will always find a way to out-shit themselves.

The Curious Orange Posted December 8, 2021 Share Posted December 8, 2021 I reckon a couple of the English players who are playing in the Big Bash get a game by the end of the series if it carries on like this. Probably James Vince and Liam Livingstone ending up as our frontline spinner bowling his leg spin Scott Borthwick style! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
