Thats will be the nice story. There will be a nastier real one.
Like Atherton was called FEC.
People said it was because he was 'Future England Captain'.
The reality came out that when he started at Lancs someone stuck a note on his locker, that simply said:
'F%^king Educated C^*t'

Posted: Mon Jan 16, 2012 2:09 pmPosted: Sun Jan 29, 2012 12:35 pmIf his unbeaten 329 at the SCG wasn't enough of a statement, his 210 at Adelaide Oval confirmed that Clarke has stood up in the most emphatic way since taking on the captaincy. The only skipper in Test history to score a triple-century and a double-hundred in the same series, Clarke also led his men well in the field, changing his bowlers at the right times, and the difference between him and his Indian counterpart MS Dhoni was stark.
