It’s astonishing how many massive football clubs in the UK have lost their way, their identity and culture. Poor leadership and bad decisions from the boards. Culture and identity are the foundations of all your success.

Great night tonight chairing the @GtrMcrCricket women’s softball meeting. So passionate and lots of subjects got aired. Brilliant meeting, thanks to all who took part.


Dare I get up at 3.30am for the 2nd Ashes Test?………..go on then, I’m a sucker for it 👍


Well, up early after our Australia adventure. Looking forward to getting stuck into some work and of course planning for the @GtrMcrCricket season 2026. We have some brilliant people within the league structure and please don’t forget to remember-ALL are volunteers.


Bizarre, 30000 feet in the air and being able to play with socials!


Well Australia, the cricket apart you have been awesome. Fantastic beaches, great air b&b and fantastic company with the @WalshawCricket crowd.

Well, after a couple of days off grid, literally in the outback, no electric or comms we are back into civilisation in Perth. I’ve encountered snakes, 🐍 kangaroos and whales but I’m still standing! Roll on Test number 1. Come on England!


Australia have played it really safe I think. Come on England 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿
