Doesn't do well with idiots.

Best news possible if Moores goes.
Should never have been given the job back, the players have to have faith in their coach and Moores seems so withdrawn from the players its scary.

I have been saying since late last summer that Gillespie should get it.
Best young coach in England imho

At last but once again the old farts at the ECB make a mess of it. They can't even sack someone properly.

Fell a bit sorry for him, although it was inevitable after the WC and Windies series. IMO we haven't been crap solely due to Moores, although he's played his part. It's been due to an uninspirational captain who is tactically inept and seemingly unable to motivate his team as well as a group of players, appearing to lack common sense and a competitive spirit, something they shouldn't need a coach to do. By lack of common sense I refer to bowlers banging the ball in too short and batsmen trying to play 20/20 shots no matter what the stage or type of game. I think it was Einstein (apologies if wrong) that said something like the definition of insanity is doing the same thing time and again, but expecting different results every time. Our cricketers haven't learnt this yet.

I know it may sound odd but he would be to close to the Aussies for my liking.

Strange? I would say this is the perfect time. Beginning of the summer and 7 test coming up. This combination was going no where.Great timing again.

I'd like to think given what Gillespie has achieved as player and coach then he's not going to suffer bias to his homeland.
These days international cricket is full of foreign coaches. Gillespie must have lived over here for years now and wouldn't have played with majority of the current Aussie team barring Clarke and Watson. I actually think his appointment would only wind up the Aussies.

Whoever is in charge of PR at the ECB deserves a medal. How the last 18 months or so has been (mis-)handled has been so bad it is almost impressive!

I am assuming that James Whitaker, head of selectors, will be next for the chopping block. His recent interview with Pat Murphy on 5Live, regarding KP bordered on the farcical.

There has even been talk of Justin Langer coming as coach, not sure if it amounts to much, but apparently he is close to Strauss from their Middlesex days.
