I have over 25 years’ experience in this area of the law. I am a director and Head of Litigation in national firm DPP Law Ltd. I have led the department for over 25 years. You can read more about me here. Ian Gould is an avid traveller and Barbados is his favourite destination which he often visits with his family.

People who know him personally would know that he always carried six Baharaini Dinars in his hand to keep a tab on the number of balls being bowled in an over. Strange, but true. I'm really sorry Ali is leaving - I share their disappointment. That isn't at all what I wanted to happen but Ali has decided he wants to go and Paul has decided it's the right thing for Sussex and it's my job to support that. Long experience has conclusively shown to me that the Police complaint procedure is not fit for purpose (unless that purpose is to brush Police Misconduct ‘under the carpet’ and frustrate and deter individuals from pursuing complaints).Gould was also into coaching, though briefly. He coached Middlesex Second XI team in 1991. He also became a mentor for aspiring Middlesex players. I act for people from all over England and Wales. As this is such a specialist area of law I routinely accept referrals from other solicitors’ firms to represent their clients. It was a similar level of frustration with Chris, and I've been talking to him all about this all through the summer," Filby added.

Tension exists between coaches and players at all times. That is probably one of the 'catalysts' that encouraged Ali to think the grass was greener elsewhere. Gould said umpire's call, which relates to an lbw decision, should not be used if DRS is available worldwide. The county has also seen home-grown talents such as Ben Brown, Luke Wells, Delray Rawlins and George Garton depart in recent years. Gould came in as a substitute at Melbourne during the 1982-83 Test series against Australia and took a catch to get rid of the dangerous Greg Chappell. England ended up winning a nail-biter by three runs. The chairman replied to the posts from the former players: "I absolutely respect them and I'm very proud of the things they achieved for Sussex and beyond.He also alleged a number of non-disclosure agreements (NDAs) had been signed at Sussex in recent years, and asked for answers on the recent management of the county from Filby. On criticism in general of Sussex on social media, Filby concluded: "I've stopped reading social media, I am aware of (the criticism) but it's ill informed. I haven't spoke to Matt in a year. I'm really hopeful that Matt and I will be able to meet and have a conversation but we haven't done in recent times.
