Hey guys, I just read on BBC Sport that Fletcher will be standing down after the WC. I have to say I think it had 2 happen, after England played so rubbish in the Ashes, getting beaten 5-nil and now such a poor WC campaign where Ireland beat more test nations that England, somoething had to happen.

My major problem is, that I don't know who will come in, long-term, to coach England. It will need to a better coach, maybe Tom Moody, but i hope they don't just make the head of the national acadamy coach, coz that defeats the point. He has had no experience at international level.

What do u think?

England don't play that boring cricket, i admit they suck at the yop of the innings but once Trescothick is back, everything should be fine

Yeah I agree with u, it seemed like anything he said just wasn't working. I guess thats gonna happen coz all the players have got used to him.

But i still think he was a good coach. He did really improve the test side, just not the ODI side.

Oh well, who would u have as English coach?

I think Tom Moody, seems a sound bet
