Dougie Brown - Bears Boss

The Fear

A Wise Man (once sat next to him)
Wooohoooo! Dougie has got his just deserts... he's been made the boss of da Bears (as we say in cricketing parlance)

Warwickshire have named former all-rounder Dougie Brown as their new director of cricket.

The 43-year-old Scot was formerly assistant to Ashley Giles, who is now coach of England's limited overs side.

The Bears won the County Championship last summer, but Brown insisted there would be no resting on laurels.

"Last year's success is now just that - as champions every other team will be looking to take our scalp so we need to be better prepared than ever," he said.
 
Good move in my opinion. Dougie was always an enthusiastic member of the squad and I'm sure this will reflect on the squad this coming season. Strange to have Tony Frost as Batting coach though. He was a Wicketkeeper/Batsman if I remember correctly.

 
Yes Frost opened the batting for quite a while though and did very well.

A very good coaching team has been assembled there , I would imagine they will do very well.

hard act to follow.

Dougie's already done a lot of the work, so knows the set up etc.

Easy... totally and utterly simple! lol
