Another dead honourary Brummie I'm afraid.

Bob Woolmer was probably the best coach Warwickshire CC have ever had, he was the brains and influence behind the great Dermot Reeve side in the early nineties. He had the skill to blend a band of journeymen with a springling of star players and make a world class side. He was largely responsible for obtaining the services of B C Lara, culminating in the unforgetable and unsurpassed 501 at Edgbaston. Warks swept all before them in those heady days and the man behind the team that brought the silverware back to Birmingham was Bob Woolmer.

I'm lucky enough to be travelling to the Caribbean on sunday for two weeks sun and cricket world cup action. But I'm now going with a slightly heavy heart having listened to todays announcement that Bob was murdered, presumably in the name of the game I so love, and I'm struggling to get my head round that.
