Whatever it takes!!!
Wasn't Swann one of the anti KP brigade back during the textgate days? Did they kiss and make up since?

TBH Swann was built up as a bad guy by the KP faction, I never really understand what he did, he wasn't even there at Headingly.Wasn't Swann one of the anti KP brigade back during the textgate days? Did they kiss and make up since?
In personality they're probably quite a lot alike.

Didn't he write some bad stuff about KP's captaincy while they were both still playing test cricket as team mates? I honestly think he has come off as a bigger **** than KP from whatever one can conclude from watching them during the cricket on TV...

Eyes not spreadsheets
The same Graeme Swann that the ECB asked to help young spinners out a couple of weeks ago. You talk so much bull****.
The same Alec Stewart who is director of cricket at Surrey. Bound to be dismissive of one of his players isn't he?
Also iirc, Alec's got some sort of link to Pietersen's agency company?

Norwood's on Fire
He said in his book that KP was never a leader of men.
That aside, not sure how much you can conclude of their personalities from watching them play cricket on TV? Not liking Swann the person certainly isn't a rare thing mind you, though I personally like him. Always comes across as very frank in his interviews, and well, I find him funny, alas he's not to everyone's taste.
My favourite post-match interview in cricket is pretty much the one the pair of them did together after the 10-11 Ashes mind you, hilarious it was.

Thing is that it's all coming from one side
Without Piers, it would be 6-0. 6-0, 5-0 and 40-love to KP
ECB should just shut the **** up, hope for a test win and then people would move on (and very, very quickly I might add)

Nah they wouldn't, because KP just keeps on popping up in the right place to remind everyone that he's there.
He's like the guy who causes the three stooges to bump into each other.

I'm not sure, but I expect you're about to tell us how you've had tea with them.
