Any self-respecting county would have sacked Gale on the spot for his tirade. He has made a rod for his own back (and Yorkshires) for the future when considering overseas and kolpack players

Anyway - my point was that you don't need to wave your arms around and shout abuse at the opposition to be a good leader. Would Michael Clarke or Brendon McCullum have fared any better as captain of an atrocious post-Zaheer seam attack? Maybe marginally if atall. They simply haven't had the talent in that department

I'll preface this as "I don't know who it was said to", but telling a foreigner to eff off back to their own country isn't particularly racist. It's very xenophobic and small minded though, and comes across as distinctly UKIP.

Andrew gale To ashwell prince.

There was alot of preceeding chat. Then Prince said f off back to mid on. Gales instant retort was f off back to your own country you kolpak f.

He actually got done for the kolpak remark and not the back to your own country one.
