In the immortal words of Bill Lawry "Flower gooone"

Sport: Andy Flower steps down as England cricket coach

Flower has stepped down as coach of the English cricket team in the wake of the squad's recent Ashes thrashing against Australia.

Another one bites the dust

Kevin Pietersen's England career is over after the brash batsman was not selected for the tour of West Indies and the subsequent World Twenty20 tournament.

This puts a new spin on the 5 - 0....

Australia 5-0
1. Trott
2. Prior
3. Swann
4. Flower
5. Pietersen

We really won the summer 12 - 1, so does that mean there will be more casualties?

That's no sacrifice, that's a necessity  ;D

Its a bugger that the 2 best allrounders in the country are unable to play in South Africa, Falkner (injured) and Perry (female)
