Lrrr

Piss take Leach doesn't get a game when the others haven't been impressive. Also Renshaw signs for Kent

I agree something needs to be done about what the agent did as its shocking. With regards to the club though, perhaps they require the money to make payments they're obligated to make and are relying on that money? Bordeaux are owed half of what Nantes get but they've said they're not demanding anything atm. I probably haven't read everything but to me it seems like the fact he had a hard deadline when he had to be at Cardiff and wanting to have a certain amount of time in France to sort everything, while Cardiff were willing to pay for a commercial flight it was known it wouldn't leave him enough time to do everything he needed/wanted to do in France so in a way forced to private flight scenario, but from there it seems like cost cutting when finding the actual flight, no reason a better private plane couldn't have been used.

As bad as it sounds to say it pretty sure Cardiff only want a thorough investigation on the chance they won't have to pay out. Insurance may cover the fee but apparently there's another £16m potentially tied up in everything. Paying the first installment is almost a case of accepting they will be paying everything.

Was mostly just in the thread I read about money, its a minority but still some saying stuff like was he really their player in a way to say they shouldn't have to pay, one said surely in a time like this the football family of clubs in the premier league can pay the fee given what scudamore got paid, its a tragic situation but some of the comments hit me like they really lacked class. Again will reiterate it was a minority, small one at that and suspect most clubs would have those few people as well.

Some very poor comments on Cardiff's forum given everything that's going on

Shouldn't be a multi use stadium even if redeveloped imo and would be a shame to move from the current ground.

Perhaps, a case of wait and see I guess, it will probably lead to an increase in ticket prices in the stands though and given it was one of the cheaper stands makes Lords a hard to afford venue to attend.

£50m for 2500 extra seats, have to wonder if that money could have been better used.

Still feel we made the right choice, Jos was always going to be an England regular in limited overs, Kieswetter was more likely to be regularly available and occasionally potentially called up it was just a tragic shame was happened to him.

Can we combine the various (having county, england etc) cricket threads into 1, not sure where to put something like this... anyway this is outrageous from Jos as a way to bring up a 50, having an incredibly good BBL.

JOverton, Bess and Gregory on lions tour to India

They should have moved earlier to snap up the footballing genius that is Sol Campbell

Cotts 2/1 favourite on Sky Bet, next out is 11/1 odds. Job for Cotts then...

Oof indeed

Rovers fans saying Clarke did turn down Leeds because of promises of new stadium/training ground, not saying I overly believe them that he'd chose them over Leeds but if there is any truth then oof

Shame on Rovers for getting rid of a manager doing such a great job

The sceptic in me reckons they've changed it for him, surely they wouldn't do that

County championship cricket in the first week of April and all home 50 over games done before second week of May that's sure to help the turn out ? See all the lads played in a winning lions team today, bowling wise Bess 0-55 off 10, Joverton 2-44 off 7 and Gregory opened the bowling 1-52 off 9. Lewis was also 32* off 22

Somerset just need to say they'll apply for test matches for a pay off then Hildreth and Matt Renshaw named in county championship team of the season.

Bess, Gregory and both Overton's in the lions squad

I'm okay with Henry, 75 wickets makes him highest wicket taker in either division. However Denly has a couple more wickets and less runs than Abell for example so shouldn't be there and Clarke is averaging 30 and has around 40 odd wickets. Only 4 players have passed 1000 runs this season so I'd say either Bell or Hildreth should have got a nomination and Ollie Robinson on 74 wickets.

So nominations for players player of the year 2 from Surrey and 2 from Kent.... ? Burns, Clarke, Denly and Matt Henry. Denly and Clarke somewhat poor choices I feel.

He's averaged 25 this season, Byrom only averages a little less so give him/Banton more experience and look to bring in a new opener

Another year for Tres, I would hope its as a back up option to others though rather than first choice.
