Putting your foot in it

We lacked so much common sense in the 90's.

Compare it to these days - Whether it be selections, management or general decisions and the ECB get most things right.

It was fun listening to the radio on a Sunday morning, waiting to here which 12 names had been plucked out of the hat for the next Test Match though

=====================

that i true.

remember 1988 ?

think we had 5 different captains that summer.

28 players was it or something ?

when they announced the touring party, you honestly wouldnt have a clue who'd be going.

Happy days

Here we go ......

The chest beaters are out in force....like shiet to a terd, where on earth do they all come from.......ya gotta laugh, the poor sods.

im sure in that 88 series they gave one of the new skippers a "vote of confidence" by guaranteeing him 2 tests in charge

Standard comment from jealous Aussie.Actually Rabbit the article was meant for a spot of light relief, pity your sense of humor deserted you along with the Ashes a long time ago

You give yourself to much credit Dr.... I wasn't commenting on the article but all the pelicans that jumped on the band wagon with the comments.....

what on earth can be found that could constitute 'chest-beating' in these articles? Seems to me that both Indians and anyone anti-English see's some perceived criticism of their respective teams in the merest slight. Deary me. Was quite enjoying these reminisces of (mainly English!) bungles in the past
