Some info here from the Lancashire website.

We at Durham know only too well how long it takes new pitches to bed but I didn't realize that global warming has had such an effect on Southport. Sounds like propaganda from the Southport Tourist Board

He's well out of that environment. Sit back and see out your contract on gardening leave.

He might have one last burst of form in him, I wouldn't be unhappy to see him here. Stories in the press that Yorkshire are not going to give Tim Bresnan a new deal , if this is Colly's last year as a player and this time it surely will be , he'd be a good replacement.

At what stage does one have to maybe think the problem is not with the club, but with the player? He left an Aussie club side when sent by Surrey in the early 2000s after a bust up on field with an umpire. He left Surrey and blamed the club for not giving him a chance. He left Kent and moaned the club didnt back him aswell, and wondered why they replaced him with others. He got dropped by England a couple of times and accused the setup of being racist. And now he's suing Leicester.
Pretty sure he's also spoke about leaving the game at every single club hes played at. He describes himself as "straight talking", that type of honest guy who sees things for what they are..... can we read between the lines and maybe redefine that as "outspoken ar*sehole"?

Bresnan's stats in the last season and a half are moderate in the extreme; doesn't appeal to me in the slightest. Colly's retirement will release mega bugs but the priority should be not a player but a top fitness consultant who can keep our young fast bowlers on the park.

Certainly didn't realize he had such a chequered history. Given Leic s recent behaviour issues they'd appear to be made for each other.
