Check out the Houghton interview on the ZC Twitter page.
Well out of character for him - the pressure is showing. One more defeat this week and he’s out of a job and he knows it, whether we like it or agree with that or not.
The worst performance he’s ever been associated with pulling no punches there hey.
I've heard good things about Matsi. We've had plenty of batting coaches over the years and nobody has made a noticeable difference. Why should he be the sacrificial lamb?
You are preaching to the choir on the admin and board problems but you can’t overlook coaches and give them a free pass.
You’ve heard good things about Matsi because he’s popular and players like him. That doesn’t equals a good coach. He’s been the batting coach for what, 3 years now? Can he claim a single batter in our side that has actually improved? If anything guys have declined. It’s hard to justify how he has kept his job this long let alone much further.
Everyone sounds very confident that yesterday doesn’t matter and we are just going to reel off five consecutive victories. That’s a huge ask. And if we don’t there will be very big consequences. Nobodies job at any level should be safe.
Flower is a must for the mental side of the game at the very least. The players and Dave would benefit immensely having Andy around in some capacity.
Any qualified addition is more than welcome.
There is so much space for improvement that it doesn't matter to check role allocation: first make coaches in, then let's see.
Petals would have to be desperate or extremely well paid to take a role with ZC. Not to put us down yo but he’s way too good for us. He took England to the top of the test rankings and has pretty much bossed it at every franchise he’s been involved with.
He’s a nice fella, seemed to like being here commentating on the qualifiers with his old mate Pommie but he is just a pipe dream I’d think.
Since no one had started one i'll do the honors. At least we get Namibia out the way directly! Does the team pick itself or will we see a wildcard?
You must be used to defeat loving arsenal fella bet it was you with the “Wenger out” banner at the anti Bob rally a few years back too
Why you say F me for? But yeah i love to support dead teams, i just like pain i guess. The missed league last season and then missing on the world cup in the fashion we did this summer has taken its toll on me. Just gotta stay positive though!
I don’t see why flower sousing get invovled in some way.
It’s still his home. The country that raised him and helped make him and I’m sure he really wants success for Zim and knows he’s probably the one guy that can do it.
