Michael Vaughan

Is it me, or has become a bit of a cock since retiring? Came across as a really decent bloke when captain of England. Now he seems to revel in slagging people off in a really arrogant manner

complete opposite of Hussain who seemed like a grumpy and dour bastard on the field but is really decent and funny in commentary.

I like them both. Vaughan and Tufnell are both class with the likes of Blofeld.

His tweeting is childish. A bit like a football supporter baiting the opposing team.

It's since he had his weave.

In what sense? He can be a bit of WUM but he's always come across as a decent bloke to me. His autobiography is up there with the best I've read aswell, a genuine cricket brain and down to earth fella.

One of Vaughan's tweets last summer before an England game was "Get those beer snakes going lads".

Now every international game in England has notices at the ground strictly prohibiting making of beer snakes.

Therefore Vaughan is encouraging fans to break the rules.

Was f***ing hilarious at the West Indies test at Durham in '07(?), taking the piss out of the 'Green Team' stewards by making 50 foot beer snakes and crowdsurfing a massive nPower sign that someone ripped off a wall

Top bloke is Nass these days.

The pressure of captaincy hurt him bad m8.

MV does think the World owes him a living tho.

Wum? Wind up merchant?

Can't put my finger on it. He seems arrogant and self righteous for a guy who had 2 good years in the England team

He is still getting over Strauss stealing his thunder.

Genuinely Never liked Vaughan I must admit, thinks too highly of himself IMO

Hussain is quality on SKY, huge about of passion for the team but comes across well, never about himself.

Bet he thought he was a cert to get a call from Sky and follow Hussian and Atherton in there commentary box

He's probably the only Ex-England captain who isn't with Sky

He did.

 

[redandwhiterob]

He did.

Did he turn a job down then?
