England don’t have a drinking problem says Stuart Broad.
I’m sure they could quit any time they want to… Hic.
Like it or not, people are going to ask questions when you get battered 4-1 without ever realistically being in the series. People would probably have less of an issue with it if you at least attempt to do the job you were sent down there to do.
It hasn’t got any better for City of Liverpool FC, mentioned earlier in the thread. Two of their recent “home” matches (including the Boxing Day fixture with South Liverpool) had to be cancelled due to “financial issues”. In other words, they had defaulted on their rent to Burscough.
Somehow they have managed to keep going and played at “home” to Charnock Richard yesterday. They lost 8-0, after being 3-0 down inside the opening ten minutes.
Since the end of October, their record is P 12, W 0, D 1, L 11, F 5, A 67.
If anyone still supports the team, I expect they must feel like this:
After an Ashes Tour defined by incompetence and arrogance, the ECB decides no one is to blame, no one needs to take responsibility or be replaced, and everything can continue as before.

Trebles all round!
It still hasn’t got any better for City of Liverpool FC. Next weekend will almost certainly see their relegation to the sixth tier of the non league mathematically confirmed. They haven’t won a match since last October and their goal difference stands at an “impressive” minus 124.
Worse still, their current landlords at Burscough have announced that Skelmersdale will be their tenants next season, which means C of L will need to find a new ground. Which might be awkward for a club believed to have defaulted on rental payments to both Bootle and Burscough.
Quite a fall from grace for a club launched with such lofty ambition and that only two years ago was in a play off to get into the Northern Premier and the upper reaches of the non leagues.
