Very odd timing. Sort of a shame really. Aside from this catastrophe 0f a tour, he's done a pretty good job overall. I thought they'd have taken abit more time for the dust to settle. Who will replace him?

Hopefully Giles will follow him out the exit door as well.

Flower's time was clearly up, heads had to roll after this complete and utter shambles.

Would quite like to see someone replace him who will encourage an attacking and aggressive brand of cricket. While the attritional stuff has been largely effective throughout Flower's time (and for that you cant complain too much) it hasnt been great to watch at times. Especially as the Vaughan era still isnt too much of a distant memory

 

[Mark E Smith]

Hope Vaughan comes in at some level.

Who will replace him?

Big question. I think I'd have kept him personally. It's the players who have under-performed. Whether Cook's negative captaincy has been influenced by Flower we'll never know.[DOUBLEPOST=1391172189][/DOUBLEPOST]

This is very true. It has been Martin O'Neill cricket

 

[Steak Pie]

Good. There's no way that that bunch of cricketers are as bad as the results suggest, the collective collapse has been ridiculous. It can only be the management and coaching, he had to go.

Giles and Gooch too hopefully.

 

[eddyfinn]

Good i think it's the right time for a change as it had gone pretty stale and we were getting too one dimensional. He's done a good job overall so he can still leave having made a difference.

 

[Johnap]

Take Giles with him - and Pietersen.

Clean break needed.

 

[eddyfinn]

Mark robinson of Sussex will probably replace him

 

[ollie c]

has has been brutally stood down.

 

[Mainze]

Yep.

We all knew he wasn't about 4 years ago. If Giles replaces Flower I'm supporting the West Indies.

I really hope this was written by someone at Paddy Power.

Giles must be the most un-interesting person in the England coaching set up at present. I'd rather have a large lump of concrete in charge.

 

[NOMOREFALSEDAWNS]

Peter Moores for me with Paul Collingwood alongside him as assistant coach.[DOUBLEPOST=1391185311][/DOUBLEPOST]
