We here at the Back Foot Punch are purveyors of quality and do all that we can to ensure the information displayed on it's pages is up to date, factual and not in any way used in a libelous case against us. And so it is with an unwagging England tail between our legs that we have to make the following amendment to the previous post on this page.
It turns out Ravi 'I don't want yo money' Bopara has a Mr Hyde side to his Dr Jekyll. Which is a shame as I was all for making Ravi some sort of saviour of values in world cricket, to be capped by erecting a bronze statue of him in the car park outside my house as a symbol of hope and prosperity through the murky deluge of T20 cricket. But I guess we all have to let others down sometimes, for one reason or another.
In all fairness to Ravi there is no reason he shouldn't enjoy the riches available, but I feel here he is just looking for a good bit of old fashioned mind games with the England selectors. Its a 'hey pick me or I'm off' approach, which may well not be required by next season if the ECB allow our players to join in with their buddies in the IPL.
How did I let everyone down? Well I just simply would never would have been given the planning permission to install such an eyesore outside my house, and anyway, it would look silly next to the 20ft papier mache Bob Willis I had put on the roof last year.
