Does someone from the ECB read these forums?!
Cricinfo - ECB to review flood of Kolpaks

If so:

1) Don't rush Flintoff back, save him for SA and bat him at 6. Five bowlers, he'll be ruined if he's one of four.
2) Harmison: Make peace not war, if he bowls well give him another chance. And I know Mark Davies isn't the fastest, but 200 wickets at 22 - if Steve Kirby and Alan Richardson can play for the Lions, Davies can.
3) Mustard can play a long innings, I think, and stand up to anyone bowling under 88mph. He's your man! Just to give a nod, Ponting c Mustard b Onions is the future .
4) Bell, at 3, for years. Okay?
5) Hoggard plays.
6) Shah, Read, Key et al deserve looking at again, but only if people under-perform - Michael Vaughan, time to pull your socks up.
7) Ashes, or else.
8) Fun is allowed at test matches, though I'm not sure I'm up for that cross-dressing malarky I saw against Bangladesh at Durham. Beer snakes are fine.
9) Make Leicestershire and Northants join the SuperSport Series and decamp to Durban and Pretoria respectively. Tell them to leave their Englishmen, Paul Nixon apart, behind - they can join Somerset.
10) We need spin, and bounce, and grass on pitches, occasionally, i.e. a bit of a contest.
11) Twenty20 will happen, but give the Pro40 the boot instead of the CC.

That's all for now.
