Anybody using the phrase "as we look to deepen and accelerate fandom" should be told to gather their personal things, leave their accreditations at reception and wait to receive their P45 by email.

This is why cricket needs a Travesty law like the American sports. I'm not joking.

Sussex "supportive of a wider discussion led by the ECB connected to the next round of media rights negotiations." Translation : "having been legged over once by the Governing Body, I can't wait for the next opportunity to get legged over again." What a fool.

@TheiPaperSport asked every county chief exec 2 questions: 1. Are you planning on putting streams behind a paywall in near future? 2. Would you back an MLB-style collective paid platform? The answers were quite revealing and positive for fans inews.co.uk/sport/cricket/i-…

Well there I was only last week praising @BBCLeicester and the other BBCLR stations for their cricket output. And then they go and do this two weeks into the season. An absolute travesty.
Replying to @CharlesDagnall
Actually provides a valuable service. Especially now with the Foxes back in Division 1. The players respect Richard Rae and an awful lot of time, skill & passion (often for scant reward) has just been discarded. I’m angry (sure you can tell) and sad.

Im afraid when you gave the perpetrator of this the summer off in a winter sport I stopped believing anything you had to say about welfare. Actions speak louder than words.
The Grand National. Different fences. Fewer runners. Fewer fallers. Same thrilling spectacle. British racing never stands still when it comes to safety.

Having seen the Protect And Survive public information films at age 10, I had "thermonuclear attack" fairly high on my list until Reagan met Gorby.

Might be nice if that 'focus' had 'shifted' before we were beaten by India and humiliated in Australia, but maybe I'm being picky.
No words 😭😭😭

By design remember, not by accident. Two rounds between end of May and middle of August. @ECB_cricket driving copper nails into a 250 year old tree. For money.
It’s April 3rd, it’s currently 10 degrees Centigrade and it’s the first day of the County Championship. This is fucking madness. How can we produce elite cricketers fit to win the Ashes under a burning sun in Adelaide, or beat India on a raging turner, in Arctic conditions?

Buy bitcoin, say bitcoin grifters.
The Government should issue a £100bn British Bitcoin bond with a coupon of 2%. Buy Bitcoin and split the profits with the bond buyers TAX FREE. When Bitcoin is worth £3mil a coin by 2045, we could pay off the UK's national debt and usher in a new Golden Age for Britain. I'm more confident in Bitcoin reaching £3mil a coin than any British Government balancing the books and paying off the debt. Might as well take a chance, the ship is sinking anyway.

Also "for the fund managers out there", buy into this grift and you make yourself instantly uninvestable. Buy BTC by all means, but a wrapper at a premium to NAV? You'd have to be tonto.
FTSE 100 CAGR for last 10 years is ~5% 😂😭 Meanwhile, Smarter Web is accumulating an asset that will do 30% for the next decade... For the fund managers out there, it's never going to be this easy to outperform your benchmark. Give Andrew a call. teapawt.net/ZynxBTC/status/1972391…

Ironically, London will never have felt more European.
NEW: Farmers across Britain are staging a large scale protest in Westminster at 11:00 on the 19th Nov. They plan to shut London down with manure spreaders and hundreds of tractors. Do you support this?

Just Fascists doing Fascist things.
🚨BREAKING: Reform UK has written to Keir Starmer DEMANDING he releases crime by nationality and immigration status data! Buckle up… it’s getting real. 😳

Take your "run it as a business" cobblers and stick it where the sun doesn't shine. The dozens and dozens of suits in the bloated @ECB_cricket overhead are the reason why we're in this mess in the first place. There is more than enough money to go round if we spend it wisely!
Replying to @Surreycricfan
Chop the number of counties in half to start with. Run it as a business rather than emotion. Without doing that it’s fuelling a poor machine and the results will be like yesterday. It’s simple really…..

I'm looking forward to the day when this lot all burns itself to the ground. Any article with a sub-heading "corruption can end up being encouraged" must point to something beyond redemption.
