Taibu speaking to AFG, IRL, SCO for fixtures

[Mueddie28]

We talk bad of foreign coaches trying to coach from away but nobody is irrated by Taibu's selecting a team in foreign soil...

2. IRL have no reason to complain about Zim.

The quote given was from 2012, by a player who has since retired. Hardly representative of what Ireland currently thinks, I'd say.

Could we manipulate the system by playing weak sides and get ourselves into the 8 that way? Through the Back door?

In theory, yes. Wins against lower-ranked sides aren't worth as many ranking points as those against the top sides, though, so we'd have to play (and win) quite a few of them. Which seems to be what Taibu's trying to arrange...

Did you even read the thread before posting? I count 2 comments just in this thread pointing out that Taibu selecting from a distance is daft.

In the latest article on Cricinfo:

While planning for the future, Taibu has delved into his past to write an autobiography - the book is finished and he is seeking a publisher.

IF it gets published, I'm not sure how much of a tell all it'll be given he is currently working for ZC. Would still be a good read I'm sure though, especially his view of the rebel saga.

Excellent work by Taibu. Hope the book potrays deeply, how Zimbabwe Cricket turned from a competative side to weak minnows, and will be best if he mention the role of Peter Chingoka & Ozeas Bavuta in destroying Zimbabwe Cricket.

Ozeas Bavuta

Yes, the same guy who is the father of former U19 skipper Brandon Mavuta, when he is down with heavy cold and blocked nose.

STONEMAN was a better speller.

To be fair STONEMAN/Robot isn't the only one (I'm looking at you Jaybro) to completely mess up the word loser by spelling it 'looser'.
It grinds my gears completely because it's not a hard word.

I'll give you all an English lesson right now
It's spelt LOSER
LOSER
LOSER
LOSER
To LOSE a game makes you a LOSER

To get assfucked by a drunk Elton John who has roofied your drink half an hour earlier makes your asshole Looser.

To fail at life makes you a LOSER.

To fail at losing weight means you need to make your belt LOOSER.

Have I made myself loud and clear!?

Sorry to upset you Dogg, I'll try harderer next time
