It's Tough Being Me - The Kevin Pietersen Story

[Pup Clarke]

Geez, that Damian Fleming's twin or something?

That's ok, soon I will post a pic of Kohli and you will wish you were even harsher

Nah, I understand we all have our favourites and pictures of them are a way to remind ourselves of the strong feelings we have for them. For example:

 

[Jono]

Imagine if we could get KP and Virat Kohli in the same photo.

Oh wait:

 

[Top_Cat]

Dear God.

 

[Spikey]

Imagine if we could get KP and Virat Kohli in the same photo.

Oh wait:

all time great picture

This kinda reminds me of CW. The ECB are the mods, infracting Kevin Pietersen over inflammatory posts (texts) that people claim are good natured banter.

I think this post is inflammatory and deserves an infraction.

It's insulting to be compared to the ECB.

Apparently Goughy wants to know if the texts between England players who aren't KP will be checked for any anti-KP comments

Goughy completely missing the point shock.

It's been briefly touched on, but what are we feeling about the role of the Saffers in Textgate?

The leak of the supposedly derogatory nature of the messages can only have come from one side (unless KP is of seriously abnormally low intelligence) so one can only suppose what their motives for making them public were. It looks like, at best, mischief making and at worst chucking a hand grenade into the opposition changing room and sitting back to admire the carnage.

Well, I've made my feelings clear, it's been shady in the extreme.

Then saying it's no big deal, after KP has been dropped, then deleting the texts.

 

[uvelocity]

good on em. go for it.

 

[Arachnodouche]

England don't deserve to lose this series, it's them shady South Africans

 

[Jager]

England deserve to lose because they dropped their best player IMO

Not sure where you got that from, we've been outplayed, we deserve to lose, Saffies really didn't need to do this.

KP, not our best player, IMHO, Broad or Anderson.

 

[Jono]

Yeah really getting sick of seeing KP described as England's best player when he's not.

Also, have no issue with South Africa making those texts public. Good on them.

 

[Spark]

He's their best batsman IMO, but probably their third best player.

 

[Ruckus]

Anderson then KP then Broad for me. Definitely their best batsman though, and he is really the only one with any x factor. Something England really need tbh.

 

[four_or_six]

Nah, Cookie for certain.
