Trying to find retweets of whatever he said. Best I can find is: "Bloody hopeless! Prob for Gilo is not much choice? Unless he does job swap with Moores"

Well he's better than Giles I suppose, but it's a bit like the England footy team re-appointing Glenn Hoddle.

Colly apparently is not a fan of Moores, if PM gets the job perhaps Colly won't be joining the coaching team after all. Assuming of course that the reports the two didn't see eye to eye were true.

Can't have been any less than zero.

Moores seems as good a choice as any.

Was Farbrace popular when he was at Kent?

Moores at least has gone back to County Cricket, with some success (as well as failure). Hoddle had a few poor management spells and has spent most of the past decade doing punditry.

He was well liked but he didn't have much success at Kent.

The BBC are saying Moores and they are often reluctant to go on rumours.

I am slightly perplexed how so many different sources seem to know this.

Moores might do well with a relatively young side, a main issue previously was him treating seasoned international players like county players.

I wonder how his Cricket Manager results have been.

You would hope he has realised this.
