Hope you haven't just read it all! There has been quite a lot to the argument on both sides, which has been interesting. And some prejudice as well. Which has been less interesting.
Currently, we need to find a way to turn off the press tap. I think just something vaguely positive and supportative from the ECB would help. Or even a plea for space to deal with the issue. Given they've been using the press as an outlet it would be a bit hypocritical, but maybe Strauss could try it. Just back their player, however qualified that might be. The press coverage is making the national team look absurd.
AC the ECB, Flower and Strauss have asked for space but the Daily Mail (amonth others) dont seem to be having any of it. Its no coincidence that the day that Strauss and KP were due to meet these 'new' revelations came out, and they're just doing what they always do and stiring the sh!t.
It appears the meeting didnt take place as was planned this weekend, though Strauss was on holiday with his family for most of the week, and KP is down in Taunton for a CC game there, if he plays, I suspect the meeting wont take place until later this week, in time for the media to drag up some other minor issue, and use that against him, researchers going through various Biographies and trying to get snippits for other salacious information.
