In England the top soccer sides had to have huge wire nets round the ground, and believe me they looked ugly, it was ironic that deaths caused by these barriers caused them to be taken down, they block escapes from out of control crowd movement.

I have said this all along - without Trescothick to open with, he went to pieces, he could not IMO cope with being the senior partner to Cook, that's why I opposed him being captain.
