Kent are to take legal advice as they seek to appeal the decision to readmit Hampshire to Division One of the County Championship in place of Durham.Kent, who finished second in Division Two of the County Championship, were under the impression that they would be considered for the position after Durham forfeited their place as part of a financial rescue package agreed with the ECB.They were especially disappointed to discover the news via Twitter rather than receive a call from anyone at the ECB.We will consult our lawyers, Kent chairman, George Kennedy, told ESPNcricinfo. We need to find out how we can appeal against a decision we consider unfair.We are very upset. We expected we would be given an opportunity to present our case to the ECB. It seems to be an arbitrary decision and the ECB are hiding behind regulations that nobody appears to have seen.While the ECB claim the decision was taken in accordance with competition regulations, it is not immediately clear what those regulations are. Indeed, in Section 4, paragraph 4.2 of the ECBs regulations for the 2016 County Championship season, it states: Promotion and relegation arrangements will be separately confirmed.With the shape of the domestic season changing, it was only agreed in March that one team would be promoted from Division Two. Kent are insistent that the ECB has not so much followed protocol as made a deliberate choice to favour Hampshire.It is understood the decision to readmit Hampshire was taken at an ECB board meeting at which county representatives and the new MCC representative, Matthew Fleming (a former Kent player) were barred from voting.It is the second time this year a decision has gone against Kent, Kennedy continued. The previous one concerned an abandoned match at New Road for which we were given just five points despite it being clear that the ground was unfit for play the day before the game.The fact that there is no right to appeal makes the ECB like the Star Chamber.I am also considering my own position in the game. Unless you have confidence in the governing body, there seems little point and I have almost completely lost confidence in the ECB.An ECB spokesman told ESPNcricinfo: Todays decision to reinstate Hampshire was in line with the two-down, one-up relegation and promotion rules for this seasons County Championship which were notified to all counties and published prior to start of the 2016 season.

EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. -- While former coach Tom Coughlin admits missing the sidelines, he also left no doubt about how much hell enjoy standing at midfield during halftime of next weeks New York Giants-Cincinnati game.Coughlin will be inducted into the Giants Ring of Honor along with former general manager Ernie Accorsi and retired defensive lineman Justin Tuck, two men without whom the 70-year-old could not have led the team to two Super Bowl titles.It is a great honor, said Coughlin, who now serves as a senior advisor to the NFLs football operations department. Im very appreciative of the fact that the New York Giants have chosen to add my family name to the Ring of Honor. I do really appreciate the history and understand where I came from.The coach considered the plaudit as much a family affair as a personal one. His son-in-law, former guard Chris Snee, went in last season, Coughlins final year with the team. And his relationship with Accorsi, the architect of Coughlins 2007 Super Bowl championship team, hired him in 2004.But it was the coachs mother who was mostly on his mind Tuesday.I think back to my mother, God bless her, when I was named head coach of the Giants, Coughlin said. She was very sick at the time, and I can remember her saying, `Thank God for the Giants.Thats kind of the way I think shed feel today, and the way our family will feel because we have great representation on Monday night. Well look forward along with Ernie and Justin to being recognized as the most recent members of a prestigious group.Accorsis biggest move was the draft day trade that brought Eli Manning from San Diego to the Giants in 2004, Coughlins first year. Even though Manning won two Super Bowls for him, the Hershey, Pa. native never thought hed have place in the Ring of Honor.Its not something I ever thought was possible, said Accoorsi, who retired after the 2006 season.dddddddddddd Ive been around a million stadiums and have seen those names there and their immortal players and coaches. To be up there with that kind of group is overwhelming. Its not something I ever dreamed.Tuck, the multi-talented pass rusher and run stopper who was just as effective at tackle as he was at end, wondered in the first place whether his name belonged next to others like Hall-of-Famers Michael Strahan and Lawrence Taylor.The first thing I think of is, `How did Justin Tuck get up on the level with those great names up there, said Tuck, who . Im still at a loss for words for it.Every time I look up there, Ill never think of myself in the same category as a Michael Strahan or LT and so on and so forth. What Ill always think of when I look up at those rafters is guys like Dave Tollefson, Corey Webster, Rich Seubert, all the names of the guys who helped me along the way.For Coughlin, enshrinement in the Ring of Honor wont replace the thrill of game day on the coaching lines. He left the door open to coaching again. But his January, 2016 retirement did have its advantages. He didnt have to deal with the messy cleanup of the domestic violence arrest that cost kicker Josh Brown his job.That was left for successor Ben McAdoo. Coughlin said he had no inkling that Brown was abusing his wife.Of course not, he said. Nope. Nothing along those lines.To Accorsi, enshrining Coughlin in the Ring of Honor is only the beginning.He won two championships, Accorsi said. The business is to win championships; he won two championships. That puts him in the Hall of Fame in my opinion.---For more NFL coverage: http://www.pro32.ap.org and http://www.twitter.com/AP-NFL ' ' '
