    None of us know what the details are YB, but I can believe that he/Rafiq maybe did take it and dished it out as well to his colleagues, as surely most colleagues in modern day workplaces do.
    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.

    Well I may be wrong Jules , and all this rascism is a far too easy a weapon to use these day's , encouraged by the media , I still stick to what I said , and I'm pleased these sanctions have been put in place regarding YCCC, I also don't think any Cricket fan will lose out , I would much rather watch Yorkshire at Scarborough than Headingley any day , some other fixtures around the county would be far better , it's not all about overpriced Headingley , as someone said earlier the instigator in all this has possibly opened up a right can of worms ? The so called top brass at YCCC need to step down immediately ,

    To be honest, as an Indian friend once said to me, there's no greater racism in the world than that that exists between Indians and Pakistanis.

    Not even Yorkshire and Lancashire lol (speaking as someone who continually had the Mick taken out of him for the 30 odd years I lived and worked in the Lancashire area). She was saying that if you think English Irish racism is bad then it's nothing compared with.....

    Irrespective of the rights and wrongs, will Rafiq actually benefit form this torrid affair, life style or financially ?

    The silent knight now is Moxon amongst others - but for how long?
