It's Tough Being Me - The Kevin Pietersen Story

at some point I'll edit this post with links to the appropriate stories, but for now I think it's time to move the chat out of the tour thread.

I bet it's that troll Michael Vaughn who has been making all the tweets.

Who is currently out of the side for 'personal reasons' who is set to gain from KP flouncing off.

That's right it is clearly the evil genius that is Ravi Bopara.


Really though this whole thing is so very tedious, just sort it out already.

KP is KP so I know this particular issue is a bit different but as a genreal point playing test cricket during the IPL is just not going to be sensible for much longer.

Is Bopara literate enough for that spoof?

Soft KP, very soft KP....

I lost all respect for KP after that massive ass kissing exercise. Clear lack of balls from KP.

did his backflip get leaked before he announced it ????

anyway my whole position on this was that everything was being exaggerated (particularly the quitting test cricket thing) so I'm claiming this as a win

I agree wholeheartedly.

Also, who was it on here that a month or so ago predicted that KP would make a limited overs comeback just before the T20 world cup, having missed the pointless series against Australia and no certainty to get back into the ODI side anyway?

I think it is definitely more

KP - 1
ECB - 0


He has pulled one over the ECB in a big way.
