Well that's just not true.
For example, I suggested that we begin providing more transparency and accountability for umpires. I also suggested that we begin changing the culture around the over protection and worship at the alter of the Umpire. I also suggested that we speak to the Umpiring Manager dude and suggest to him that we provide some more training to umpires around being impartial and removing all prejudice that a clubs reputations might bare.
Did you ignore or forget these points? Disagreeing with them doesn't mean they didn't exist.
Accountability - what's the point? An umpire is crap you sack him, no umpire no game. There's no point. Umpires are currently observed.
Umpire 'worship' - The dumbest thing Ive ever read on this forum...maybe excluding your theory about how preseasons don't help.
Impartiality Training - ??? haha, youre going to go out to train and ask umpires not to cheat? Umpires don't cheat (no doubt the odd exception) but they are human.
They are not practical or sensible points.
You're example of previous prior opportunity interpretations are also just wrong.
This sort of stuff just shows how you have no idea. Over this topic (never thought I say that!)
