Rip Mike Hendrick

[Elwood Blues]

No you weren't, you was hoping for a reaction ��

What is it with some of you on here thinking you know what is in my mind

TOBW has done this several times in the last few months First calling me a staunch royalist, then an anti republican and racism apologist all with no evidence. He did apologise but in the case of his racism apologist canard pretty grudgingly and he still hinted I was being economical with la verite.

When I say I was speaking rhetorically I was.

Or are you accusing me of terminological inexactitude?

How on earth did that find its way into a thread you started about the death of cricketer from around fifty years ago?

The main reason I gave those apologies was because I thought they would bring an end to a political disagreement with someone I've grown to have respect and affection for over the years on here. However, I'm pretty certain that this is not the first time you've resurrected the subject when it suits you in conversations on here in which I'm nothing more than an innocent bystander, so those apologies appear to have been a bit of a waste of time don't they.

I liked Hendrick as he was an honest medium fast bowler who bent his back for the team.
He was never the sort to blast teams out but , to my eye, he did a good job in softening up the batsmen for the next bowler on.
Highly regarded on the county circuit and became a much respected and admired coach.
A good one lost.
