Dene Hills. Can't even spell his own name properly - doesn't auger well.

So what the fark is Andy Flower doing then? And just how many coaches do you need....

Perhaps the coaches need coaches.

Perhaps Andy Flower just hasn't turned out to be very good but, in classic ECB style (as they did with Kevin Shine) they've decided to keep him on the payroll as he's a nice enough chap.

Dene Hills as well? Tasmanians taking the world over ...

Yep, the sole reason for England's climb to the top of the rankings.......

Is he still working with the team?

I think he might be one of the coaches at the High Performance Centre at Loughborough.

How's that pronounced? ... low brow? low bra? loberer?

Luf-bru (short vowel sounds)

You're welcome, I can give you elocution lessons if you like.

(You might end up sounding like a 80 year old miner but it'll be worth it.)

I'm a bit practised already from the old 'Ripping Yarns' episodes, especially 'Golden Gordon' and the Eric Olthwaite episode.

Don't thee be wasting thy young life there, luv.
