Rajput vs Houghton

Post by ZIMDOGGY »

Hey,
6 months or so since Rajput was sacked.

Just wondering who everyone prefers/thinks is the better coach between Rajput and Dave?

Are you happy that Zimbabwe went in a new direction?

TBH its a close call but i will have to hand this one to Dave Houghton but only because his mustache is much cooler than Raj’s! Well done babwe’

That's certainly a tough question Dogg. I'm just not sure.

Isn't Rajput still some special advisor? Maybe Houghton is just a frontman and Rajput is the real brains?

We almost getting there, what if Raj is also just Hami’s frontman and Hami is being controlled by Pak Bean?

Bring back Rajput for me! We had real vision and character under him, he'd have won against SA :D

Houghton is doing a very good job.
Since he came back results are self evident.
I hope he continues.

This. With Rajput it would never have rained. How dare Dave allow this.

50 50 calls are some of the toughest for leaders to make but hey, that's why we pay the admins the big bucks

Rajput was inspiring he wanted all the senior players dropped. Stroke of genius that. That world have us making the WC semi no doubt. :lol:
