Peter Moores gets a second bite of the apple

[flibbertyjibber]

It's similarly amazing how coaching Sri Lanka is considered a second tier job to being an assistant coach with England.

Fact you get paid in one job helps.

 

[flibbertyjibber]

Farbrace should not be with England until the Sri Lanka tour has finished.

I agree but ECB will probably think they have done nothing wrong anyway and nor has Farbrace. It could and should have been handled better by them.

Farbrace has said that payment was not an issue.

TBH I'd say Fairbrass, surfeit of hurtful ***iness aside, has a more compelling case for the headship than No Moores.

I sincerely hope I'm wrong (I often am; cf every post I've ever made about Brendan Rodgers, for instance) but after Downton's singularly unimpressive turn at the presser one suspects Hugh Morris's replacement has employed the man on the basis of a shared fluency in management (non-)speak.

I love your hatred of goobldy-gook, and those Management types that speak it. Is it because of your life in the civil service?

Personally, it annoys me a bit, but it doesn't really anger me.

It's a fair call that it's not entirely unconnected with one's profession, yes.

Having been a Personal Adviser for the better part of a decade, I have recently been rebranded as a "Work Coach".

Now aside from conjuring up images of women of a certain age who wear vaguely ethnic clothing, knit their own yoghurt and fung shui their bog roll, it staggers me that in the doubtless time and money consuming process that it took to come up with this pearl that no-one thought that "WC" might not be the best abbreviation...

Surely management speak is far more common in the private sector?

 

[theegyptian]

Fwiw and i doubt it would have had any really affect on his management speak but Downton's dad died a couple of hours before the Peter Moores press conference so he did well to get through it.

It's all pervading nowadays. It's those damn PR firms they hire and non-MBAs realising that management speak is a great way to get away with saying a whole lot of nothing.

 

[Jono]

Yeah, plus management consultants.
