Trust was the issue - ECB

http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/cricket/26106902

Still, so long as Piers backs him.

 

Load of rubbish, he was forced out because he wasn't a yes man

 

If trust wasn't there then why can't they tell him when it was broken.
Great Article in Mail with Flintoff http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/cr...E-England-piles-money-KP-theyve-hung-try.html

The ECB are going from been a very good until to a group that don't have a clue. Some have left.
Some will say it's not relevant what Fredy thinks but why he knows 90% of the players in the England team.

 

Oh god here we go, quoting famous people when it suits. I'm out goodnight

 

Sorry Ryhill tyke but I put a article link on that I thought was good. Not sure if anyones seen it as I can't imagine people on here look on the Mail website (I don't)

 

By removing Pietersen, the ECB are clearly hoping for a more pleasant dressing room where each man plays for the team, and not for themselves. You can't have the England captain undermined by other players. And by the sounds of it, cliqués were formed in the dressing room.

The cynical among us, and the pro KP supporters will point to Pietersen being made a scapegoat.

Personally, I'm not arsed. I've seen better cricketers come and go than KP. Decision has been made, we move on.

 

It says in the article that they had problems but thats not a bad thing. When you can see things to the level KP can why shouldn't he tell and question the captain?

 

Bad egg. Get rid. He's got all his mates (piers, warne and flintoff) defending him.

Cook said it was either him of flintoff. Ecb went with cook.

Good riddance. He was the gazza of cricket so much missed. Best days behind him.

 

And for those who seem to want to defend the ecb read this.

They don't even have the respect to tell former players why they weren't chosen for interview with respect.

If that was Australians or Indians or South Africans they would say No steve we don't think your right for that role but could you help us with this. Not ECB and they have just been given more power in world cricket because there so good at managing there own game.

 

Another mate of KP who played for himself. Bad egg. Didn't get the job now throws dummy out the pram.

I'm a fan of KP but he's gone. He's up there with Gazza. A maverick who brought joy to all. Only a moron wouldn't say these are great players.

 

Q: have you ever had a job. A: no

 

Piers Morgan ‏@piersmorgan 1m
Just spoke to @KP24 - nobody has EVER raised the issue of 'trust' with him between rehabilitation & sacking. Not ECB, Cook, anyone. Fact.

'Trust' never mentioned during Downton/Whitaker meeting where @KP24 was sacked. Not once. Fact.

ECB not produced a single shred of evidence that @KP24 breached Cook's, or anyone else in team's trust since coming back into side. Fact.

Good luck ECB on getting anyone whos any good after this.

 

Seriously? At what point will you get it into your fūcking thick head that you are spoiling this forum for everyone other than yourself.

Piers Morgan is a moron. Kevin Pietersen is a moron. Andrew Flintoff is a moron. YOU are a moron.

 

Phil, I tried explaining this to you the other day but you clearly didn't take it in.

Piers Morgan is a known liar. He fabricates stories to fit his own agenda. He's about as trustworthy as Peter Sutcliffe.

 

My girlfriend never raised the issue of trust with me. But she turned to me one day and said she didn't trust me and ****ed off. Turned out she was right as I was cheating on her. Piers Morgan is a *****.

Ps that story was made up. But is used to make a point.

Gazza and KP are massive talents now not playing for England.

 

Sorry but you don't have to read every post.

I don't read many
