England players to hold talks over possible withdrawal

I’m usually of the opinion that they are professional sportsmen and should get on with it but, it is over Christmas and New Year etc and it seems a bit shan to be away from your family then.

To be fair, I reckon just about all of the travellers will be the same whether they’re spending money or making money off the trip.

The FTP has us touring Pakistan for three tests in Nov/ Dec 22, after a white ball tour to Oz in the October.

It’ll be interesting to see what happens. Anything held in Nov 22 clashes with the Quatar World Cup which might affect TV rights (which are yet to be sold I believe).

Who cares what they think. They are supporters just like the rest of us and we have no input.

The authorities and players need to get together and work out what is best, not a bloke with a trumpet and his mates.

In all fairness, going months without your family would be f***ing shit. They're not robots. Also, the fact none of our fans can be there must surely be playing into their decision? Puts the team at a massive disadvantage.

:lol: :lol:

agree like. the fans who want to follow this via tv/radio/etc will make up 99% of the audience but those who want to be at the games think they should get to dictate whether it's played or not

From a selfish point of view wouldn’t mind it postponed so I can travel next year. However looking at the Ozzie’s way of handling covid don’t think theres any guarantee that the borders will be open by next year anyway.
