Threads like these are the reason I stopped posting on here, constant racist BS, nice to see things have improved.

Mike probably need to put his views in a better Diplomatic way.
Although can't be to critical considering I probably push the mark as well in the same topic.
can't speak for my self considering I don't get offended by what mike is saying but some of the comments could be seen offensive to people, especially if they got African links.

might not be the right thread for this but will ask for it anyway but would be nice to know why Mike likes or is a fan of Zuma.

ok, I think that's enough for now

I don't particularly like the comments about Abbott but also the Bavuma comments - when you start looking at FC careers there are a lot of comments one can make - why was Gagandeep Singh never selected for India? why does Rishi Dhawan not get a chance? why did Stokes get backed for international cricket before Woakes? Why did Will Gidman never get a chance?

My tuppence is that county cricket offers better income and greater security for SA's fringe players and I wouldn't read any more into it than that.

I have some sympathy with the high feelings because sometimes race does have a part to play however it clearly causes too much rancour so it's time to take a break
