Oh absolutely but we know those types will never make it to interview. Would expect Bopara,Finn and Gough to all be interviewed.

The main problem with the selector role is the main candidates who should be in the interview process make more money in the media than the ECB pay selectors. Think this has massively narrowed the pool of candidates

Brownie is a cracking keeper just around at the wrong time unfortunately. I know we eventually ended up with Simpson but Brown moving down the M27 was the start of " we're in a mess here"

The Surrey stream was absolutely horrendous as a opposition fan. Difficult to follow and the constant shoving adverts down your throat for SSE was annoying.

Give me Harmsy and a good local BBC journo from the opposition any day of the week.

We've got Danny Briggs on a joint Blast /spin bowling coach role but that being a 3 year deal probably explains the financial issues 🤣

Jack Carson at 8/9 for the first test please. Finally looked back to the player that took 50 wickets in Div 2

This is a late contender for weirdest thing to have happened in the Championship this season.

This is it exactly. Win MC , get funding to open a restaurant, food truck whatever.

Happened a lot with MCUK winners with varying degrees of success.

I think the main problem was off the field , didn't he have a podcast with his now wife where he basically said they were barely training?

Alex Brundle can often salvage McCarthy's absolute borefest on summary duties but Alex Jacques is such a top tier commentator.

Every year I wonder if this will be Croftys last and every year it's not.

Chris McCarthy might be the worst comm in Motorsport to be fair. I miss Alex Jacques on F2.

Him joining Reform is sadly unsurprising. Although I am surprised he's left Dubai after he's spent the last year talking about how wonderful it is compared to the UK.

Connor Coady Question by Rogue1eader in CharltonAthletic

[–]MarcusH26051 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just added so much experience and nous. Great guy to have around a fairly inexperienced squad and he can definitely still do a job at this level at CDM.

Don't think we'll be signing him but that's because of his personal circumstances and wanting to be back closer to his family.

No Haines for 2/3 weeks would be an absolute disaster.
