Entirely predictable, Yorkshire walk away scott free. A few people, some probably innocent, lost their jobs but the club found guilty of racism is not punished at all. Disgusting.

The club is its members. Are you suggesting the members should be punished for the (alleged) actions of a few people?

Yes the members should be punished, weren't the members the ones abusing Amir at Scarborough?

It was members that shouted sexist language when I last attended a match there too - disgusting.

Durham's members suffered for the actions of their board when they were relegated.

"Charges have been brought against "a number of individuals" by English cricket's governing body in relation to allegations of racism at Yorkshire.

The accused, who have not been named, could be banned or fined by the England and Wales Cricket Board.

Yorkshire itself has also been charged with breaching the anti-racism rules."

They’ve been named elsewhere.

What sanctions can the ECB have over retired cricketers?

[LeedsExile]

None. This is becoming an exercise in futility only filling the pockets of lawyers.

Indeed.  I suspect that the ‘accused’ will need to take action.

Yorkshire have begun to unravel from within. First David Willey returns to Northants citing the "terrible atmosphere" at the club as a major reason. Astonishingly his social media post was "liked" by a number of high profile colleagues in the first team.
Today Tom Kohler-Cadmore announces he is joining Somerset. A major loss but as his father, who was the dressing room steward, was amongst those sacked not a great surprise.

Will the last Yorkie please turn off the lights.

We are in no position to gloat at this stage. Rightly or wrongly.

I remember that advert for a well known furniture retailer who’s strapline was “I’ll see you in Courts”.
