I think the umpires of today's day and age don't command the same sort of an aura amongst the players as a certain Dickie Bird, David Shephered, Steve Bucknor, Venkat Raghavan. They are timid becatof their own filed calls being questioned and overturned frequently.

There needs to be more noise about pace of play and umpires (lack of) authority. This would not happen at club level (one hopes!).
