What a disgrace having a South African as the captain of our test team, never has one been so disgusted since the appointment of Tony Greg many years ago. How can one call it a England side when the other week it had 2 South Africans and a bloody Aussie in its team.  |

And who would be better right now Eff?? Pietersen's of the quality and class to drive us forward and not let it affect the way he plays in an England shirt. Yes, he may be South African born but give me one Englishman who is equipped to take that Captaincy right now??
And also, he's chosen to play for England - is a quality player, where's his heart on his sleeve for us in taking on the Aussies, Windies and his 'home-nation' South Africa and does his all to beat them! What more does he need to do to prove he's committed to OUR cause - that is, ENGLISH CRICKET!!

It makes a mockery of an international! Monty is more English than those three one mentioned.
If we have not got any decent players of our own then we should lose with dignity not put in some ringers from around the world.
One would sooner have a a team full of Englishmen lose a few match's than a multi national side that wins once in a while

Can't imagine how you must have felt, Eff, when Nassar Hussein was England Captain  . |

Are you Norman Tebbit? What he is saying that there are not many ENGLISH BORN players. How would you feel if English born players decided play for India or South Africa? Not for the money eh?  |
