I'm assuming you guys have all come across this, and apologies if it's already been posted on here.
However, I heard it for the first time yesterday and it really made me laugh - I'm sure Kevin took it in great spirits too :D
-
Just shows that the probability of there being no bullying in the Eng dressing room was 0, that even Swann is jealous of the success of KP (how many IPL offers did Swann get?) and Swann is more of a (No Swearing Please) than anticipated.
-
I just thought it was funny ???
-
yeah, swanns a prat and this just adds weight to the fact there probably was a clique and bullying going on tbh.
-
Blimey - who have thought you wouldn't approve Eeyore? :)
-
How would Swann define himself: "An 'entertainer' first, offspinner second."
-
Who cares now he's retired, it is not important for us to consider him an off-spinner anymore?
How do you describe Flintoff - fish-fryer, adventure cyclist, gameshow regular, boxer or all-rounder?
-
Sorry Fattus, it was a David Brent joke.
I'm trying too hard.
:)

You are forgiven Alvin, I'm afraid it's just me getting my dander up about all the 'poor-Kevin' followers and their criticism of Swanny having a laugh at his expense post-career.
It's fine to support Kevin, but most England cricketers are such automatons in front of the media that it's refreshing to hear one being a bit cheeky and having a laugh!

Probably rockstar third. :D

I get your point fattus, but it is one thing to laugh at your own expense and totally another to make fun of someone else.
Yes the tape was amusing to a point - although Swann got camper and camper as the "interview" went on - but the point is Swann is incredibly two faced - one minute he is all ECB, the next he is trying to be funny and a stand up comedian.
-
You make fun of my forward-defensive - how is that different?
Plus he'll never be an ECB man, so why not have a laugh - I'm sure plenty will take the mick out of him?

It surely can't be right then to belittle a fellow pro by calling them 'muppets', unless you class that as just have an opinion he is entitled to express in public....
KP has thrown so many stones in his own house there's no windows left.
We won't go there I suppose with humiliating an England player in the dressing by asking everyone 'is there not a better player in County cricket?' as I wasn't there at the time at can't prove it. :)

Fattus proving the permanent truth that if you start a discussion on the internet and use the words "Kevin Pietersen", doesn't matter what you're saying about him or what your intentions were, you have started a massive row.

Struggled to even raise a smile to that.
Swann is the most dull and uninteresting person I think there is in sport. People seem to forget the bloke pussied out half way through an Ashes test match.
Didn't really see the point in this "sketch", I think all involved in the ECB should just let the KP thing go now and leave him to his Twitter account and playing hit and giggle cricket
