Richard Pyrah is back at the club after being appointed Head coach of Yorkshire women.
Good to have him back around the place.

At long last!
When Colin Graves was asked if those sacked ex-employees could be re-employed by Yorkshire he responded, (words to the effect) 'if there was a vacancy they would be given consideration' ie there was no embargo. Well I'm delighted for Richard and I'm delighted Colin kept his word.
Whenever I hear Richard's name I think of the Headingley Roses match where we were behind the curve but Richard scored a magnificent ton and brightened my day. He's made of the right stuff.
Welcome home Richard 🏏

He has to serve a two week coaching ban that was imposed on him by the CDC. I would have hoped they might take the 'time served' while he was pushed out of the game into consideration.

He was sacked for three years, but that doesn't count towards his two-week coaching ban! Obviously. How could he serve a ban if he was sacked?
Proof positive that our small minded enemies are still out to get us, and will never miss an opportunity.
Anyway, welcome back, Richard. I think it was Ben Coad who attributed his rise to Rich's coaching.

Interestingly the Cricketer, website at least, seems to be ignoring the story. The Guardian and the BBC are obviously hostile but don't seem to have gone back to AR for a comment or taken the opportunity to rake up the full story again.

The cricketer has caught up and though the full article is behind a paywall the headline looks unfriendly.
"Return of banned former coach to Yorkshire delights Colin Graves"
Found guilty of using racist and/or discriminatory language while at the club by the Cricket Disciplinary Commission, ex-all-rounder Richard Pyrah is set to return to Headingley"
Unusually no by-line.
