I always thought Michael Vaughan was a wrong one.

In the spirit of reconciliation and happiness at the end of the Banter Era (RIP) and as a result of promotion I have cleared out my ignore list. Look forwards to reading your posts!

Unsurprisingly, a massive Brexity type has been connected with being a little bit racist.

Who would have thought it?!

I've never understood the 'little bit racist' bit.

Surely, you are either are or aren't racist?

Sorry, but it's hard to make sarcastic understatement come across well in text. Please take it as being heavily implied in this case.

I'd wait to see what happens when Joe Root starts to get asked about this stuff in Australia. Don't think it's going to be pretty.

Yep, they haven't forgotten how Warner and Smith were treated in 2019.

Neither the ECB nor Azeem have stated that Root's not mentioned in the report. Given that he's about to lead England into an Ashes series, you'd have thought they'd want this information out in the open, assuming it was true, of course.

There is, at this point, a difference in that both Smith and Warner were guilty and had been published where there is no actual evidence in the public domain about Root. Yes, it needs to be clarified but you are a little bit too keen to keep pushing that insinuation.

It's pretty incontrovertible that Yorkshire CC is/has been institutionally racist, and so if I were an Aussie journalist I'd just ask Joe what he did to stand-up for his Asian colleagues who have been treated so shamefully.

I'm not insinuating anything, I'm just amazed at the apparent willingness to not protect him. I don't want the Ashes overtaken by the issue. It's the ECB's (lack of) PR that I'm astonished about. They're failing Root IMO and exposing him to a harrowing experience.

I wonder what anyone could say to an Australian asking an Englishman about/accusing an Englishman of racism, yes I wonder.

Still, it's great to see so many current and former players and administrators in English Cricket offering support, thanks and solidarity with Azeem Rafiq for the courage and conviction he's shown throughout all this.

Absolutely, I mean what chance would Rafiq ever have of captaining England?
