Yorkshire’s bigotry anger has deepened as the region’s leading administrator launched a personal assault on Azeem Rafiq. Roger Pugh, chairman of the ECB Yorkshire South Premier League, described Rafiq as “discourteous and arrogant” in his chairman’s blog, dated 3 September, and posted the following day. It followed Rafiq’s interview with a leading sports website, published on 2 September, in which he said his experience of “institutional racism” while playing for Yorkshire left him on the verge of suicide.
