Re: ********The Ashes********

For the Batting side - more than 85 Runs a session and not losing more than two Wickets means you take the session.

Aussies haven't looked too shabby though. It's been decent Cricket so far.

Didn't the convicts have a similar 'we will fuck them over' attitude back when they were good and, er, fucked us over?
Were you an England fan then?
Or do you simply support whichever country is losing? :)

I must admit that i am mostly an underdog supporter, being a City fan how could you not.
I have suffered many, many years of England being taught how to play cricket by the Aussies, family and friends never failed to mention it and i stood proud (even though i don't really give a fuck about cricket) in England's defense.
Now though, i see the arrogant attitude the Aussie's had being replicated in the English attitude, raggish if you will. Do not like it.
Always respect your opponent, a lesson our players could learn from.
Fuck the convicts, we will destroy them, nothing wrong with arrogance when you back it up.

I always liked the Colin Bell way of doing well in sport.
I disliked the way the Aussie's were when they beat every one, and do not like England becoming the same way.
Win with class and lose with class.
On a much smaller scale, i played pub comp pool (was very good, if i say so myself), if i got beat, i got beat for one of one reasons, i was beaten by a better player on the night.
That's it in sport,some of my team mates would have a breakdown because they lost a game of pool to a better player on the night and they could not get over it, sad.

Even though my Aussie mates will give me grief, i hope the Aussies win the Ashe's back.
The underdog thing again.
 
Re: ********The Ashes********

Why I went for 2-1 Aussies. This is s good attack n apart from Trotty nobody else is in great form

Course this is all reverse psychology n hope we woop em 5-0
 
Re: ********The Ashes********

Don't think we will get over 300 with conditions like this you can bet the sun will be out tomorrow and it won't do owt
 
Re: ********The Ashes********

They will probably take a wicket or two now but there is nothing in this Aussie attack. Two of the wickets were batsmen errors and one was a decent delivery. A lot of the other stuff has been wayward.

The only reason I haven't predicted 5-0 is because of the form of England's batsmen. If they get it right sooner rather than later we will humiliate them.
