    Geoff Miller has two sides

    By Will 9 months ago, Comments

    Geoff Miller has replaced David Graveney as England’s chief selector, in a new role known as National Selector. I know very little about Miller, other than the odd snippet about his career and that he watches masses of county cricket. But although he’s 55, he’s clearly young at heart and down with da kids. Here he is, for example, talking in the third person:

    “There are two sides to Geoff Miller. One of them is deadly serious, one has an entertainment side. I’ve been involved in England selection for seven years and David Graveney and I have been involved in making some pretty tough and harsh decisions.”

    Chris Eubank would be proud.
