    BUT, Im not sticking up for it here and I don't know just how far his claims go, was it even more than just banterous name calling ?, and there has been at least one more Asian player who is making the same claims etc.
    As for Gaz Ballance, Im not sure why hes come out and admitted as much as what he did, as surely he will gain nothing but negative notoriety from this.

    Jules .

    I'm as fecked off as the next man with all this shyte .

    History is history and the policy to judge what happened hundreds of years ago by todays thinking is pretty flawed in my opinion .

    Back to the subject of the topic .

    Yorkshire by today's world have a problem and one they have tried to bury without consequences to those who run the club .

    That's the issue .

    Whether we like it or not you just can't have some of the things that's emerged from the report and Rafiq's allegations .

    This is the reality of the world we now live in .

    The Yorkshire club is wide open mate and they've allowed this to happen by trying to just simply pass this thing off .

    I don't make the rules do I .

    Your opinion , Yorkshireborn opinion or even my opinion isn't the question .

    They were given the opportunity to put their house in order .

    They didn't take that opportunity .

    You can pretty much work out what now happens from this point on .

    Most successful country cricket club in the history of game here .

    A solid record of insular thinking up until 1992 rightly or wrongly .

    Second and third generation players of Asian heritage born and living in the county never considered despite thousands living within the county , cricket mad and overlooked .

    Talk about signing your own suicide note .

    Absolute made an example of .

    The fact that Tendulkar was shyte batting for Yorkshire isn't even going to be an issue .

    As daft as it might seem I see a link between what’s happening at Barnsley and posts on here trying to get their heads around what’s happening at YCCC.

    TRANSITION
    Doug O’Kane had a good article in the Chronicle about it a few weeks ago - how Barnsley were trying to change tactics in just a short period of time.

    TRANSITION
    Can also be applied to how the British public are currently in a period of change from one mindset to another when it comes to how they perceive and discuss people from other countries.
    It’s not easy - it’s difficult.
    What was once acceptable - is no longer acceptable now.

    As a society we have to be reasonable and understanding that transition is taking place.
    IMO - people that sometimes use words that are now deemed to be unacceptable are not necessary at fault.

    In saying that - if out and out hatred is shown then obviously there is a problem there.

    The key words there Nudge is that ALL Parties have to be “reasonable mad understanding” The “MAGIC WAND” that the woke society wish to wave , won’t achieve change overnight……. In fact, the faster and more they wave it, the slower change will be achieved.

    CEO Arthur gone today. Gale will not come back neither will Moxon away from work with reported stress related issues.

    Never been able to understand how Moxon has survived results / performance wise for so many years irrespective of the current off the field issues.

    Get Moeen Ali on board with a ex- Yorkshire player still well respected within the coaching circuit to head up the County team.
