Just do not mention the war, and everything will be alright.

At the end he was talking about the 100 attracting families. Yes, for the Women, the Men just attract a bunch of cretins.

Despite the difficulties, the pre-season overseas tour will go ahead. Jollies for us, let them eat cake.

....

I've listened to it. What a load of nonsense. If we were to believe him (and others with similar view) then few families attend the T20 men's matches.

He sounds like another ECB lacky rather than a representative of the club members (aka club owners).

A T20 on a Sunday afternoon attracts families and children,  but doesn't sell as much ɓeer, so Friday  nights are their priority.

If anyone wishes to accompany me to any format and the first question is. When does the Bar open? Any invitation is immediately withdrawn.

Remind me again. Who is he? Who elected him? has anybody ever actually seen him at an Essex match?

I have seen him a couple of times at matches in front of the Pavillion.  You can't  miss him, he is a big unit.

Who elected him?

Not the paid-up Members, obviously -- let them vote & they might have elected the 'wrong' person 😎

With the news that Celebrity Chef, John Torode has been accused of the same indiscretion. Why did John Faragher, follows his example, by standing his ground and stating it was a one-off, some years ago, which I can hardly remember. Try and make something out of it. So, others did far worse. That is for them, not me.
