We have two camps and it's sad to see cricket fans (England ones anyway - which is all that matters in the uk) split so much. It's literally 5050 as well. Those who see ok as messed up but something wasn't right and the ECB line.

Sad as it is, the ECB need to be cleared out and live up to what they are there for... The good of the game not their over paid suits.

KP needs to play cc and score runs, show how good he was/is.. And stop hanging around with piers bloody morgan

What's the common denominator with the ECB's fall out with Gatting, Gower, Botham etc etc...

Every month is a new episode in the ECB showing themselves to be, as an organisation, more unprofessional, incompetant and damaging than any individual could ever be. Quite an achievement really.

True. These big organisations are not going to get everything right. Look at the FA or cricket Australia just 2 years ago.

Worth also pointing out that when this dossier refers to KP taking 'two young players out to drink', it was reported at the time as being Broad and Bairstow. I wouldn't call Broad young, and both have more than enough tour experience to make their own decisions.

So Broad, the T20 captain and arguably leader of the attack is now a "young player" and Bairstow who's been in and around the squad for years is too?

Will the ECB also be realeasing a book called "How not to do PR"?

The piece regarding him being told to instruct Piers Morgan is also embarrassing, and perhaps provides an insight into the regimented nature of the dressing room. As much as people may dislike Piers, he is surely free to give his opinions on whatever he wants.

Anyone with some degree of intellect that this 'breakdown' of the English dressing room, of which there is surely no doubt that it happened (blame who you will for it) arose in 2012, when KP was the only player to attract an IPL bid, and a lucrative one at that. Whilst Swann, Anderson and Prior failed to attract any interest, and from then on things appeared to go downhill

And surely this raises questions about the comments relating to who ran the dressing room?

Working but had a quick glance at the later chapters. Decided to start on chapter 24 and KP's straight into a moan about Finn's handling and straight onto a flower moan. Hope the rest of the book isn't like this lol. Now it's downloaded (£7.47 at amazon for kindle) I'm off to charge it up. Could be a long night.
