Seen hes been struggling with Yorkshire as well. Hope he keeps his head up and plugs away. One of the finest and most stylish english batsman, and if he works at it, I wouldnt be surprised if he plays his way back into the team for the Ashes.
 
The guy needs a break from cricket imo. A winter off and some decent early form for yorkshire at the start of next season and he should be in contention. Back in the day he was our best batsman but the captaincy took its toll on his form in the end.

IF he hits form would have him at 3 drop straus and open with bell/cooke
 
Just a thought: if he hadn't resigned, the selectors would have insisted nothing was wrong and all was well, and Vaughan would probably be rested from county cricket the rest of the season, and then putting together crap scores on tour

For all he may represent a Yorkshire county despite being a Manc, its to his upmost credit that he fell on his sword as captain. It was the right thing to do at the right time, and he'll now always be remembered for being a cracking captain who won more tests than any other Englishman, and finally recaptured the Ashes in thrilling manner during a glorious English summer. We won't be remembering him for hanging on too long
 
Good captain, always rated him highly. Like Brad says it was the right thing to do at the time (standing down) and Vaughan was good enough to realise that himself. Anyway he is one of the better England batters on his day as well but hasn't been performing for quite a while. I wonder if it was those big injuries that shook him and if he will ever get back to his best, I'm beginning to think he won't.
 
Really respect the bloke and his leadership style which I analysed for Uni once. In full flow he is one of my favourite batsmen as well. But I have strong doubts about a comeback for the Ashes at least, he needs a few decent scores and is unlikely to do it in time I reckon.
