The current England cricket squad

Few games for Barugh and Higham spread over three/four seasons when I was in my teens. Did try and get back into it in my 20s but didn't have the patience any more.

 

At which point did it work a treat? There's a great big "zero" in Root's wicket column when we need to take 10 wickets to win.

 

Sky have been just as baffled as to why Monty isn't bowling Gaz, pay no attention to this lunatic. I'm not sure I've ever read the thoughts of someone who knows less about sport.

 

I think they are the kind of people who just can't wait to have ago at the players.

Lloyd doesn't do it and Strauss doesn't. If theres something they think should be different they will say but they always try and remember what its like for the players.

I thought especially Vaughan the other day were horrid. Why doesn't he talk to Joe Root.

The best moment I can remember was last winter. Willis was off on one and harmison and collingwood just nailed him live on tv. Both said in nicer words that he was wrong and this is 2013 and if you do it the way you said they will tee off against you. It was when England played in NZ.

I can't wait for these relics to go and proper knowledgeable people to come in who know about facing these attacks and batters.

 

How many people can take positives from a 5-0 humiliation?

 

Botham did but the others didn't.
Botham's same as boycott. Goes off on one.

 

Phil
I have tried to defend you on here in the past
Times up
You are talking 100% ********
You know fk all about cricket

 

You just talk nonsense. Botham is the most positive England supporter I've seen - to the point of ridiculously predicting 5-0 England victories. As Boycott said yesterday, if they think everything is going to be bright and rosy when they get back to England after this shambles of a tour, they've got another thing coming.

Your World must be a truly bizarre place. A place where a Barnsley team that get battered week after week are great. A place where an England team get absolutely taken to the cleaners by an average Australian side, and they're still great.

Must be a fun place to be, but I'd rather live in a cupboard than take your opinion as anything other than bilge.

 

Sorry Phil but I have to take issue with you on your last point. You might not agree with them but the likes of Botham, Willis and Boycott know more about the game than anybody on here. They may have a different opinion to other ex pro's but that doesn't make them wrong and it doesn't make them relics.

 

So England get beat one series and they are suddenly the worst team ever then.
I bet you were one of those who were saying how bad manchester united were earlier on in the season and the players weren't any good.
People take massive reactions.

There isn't any need to make big changes. This isn't any worse than what happened in West Indies and almost the same side went to number one in the world 3 years later.

have they been good enough, No. Are they good enough players to win the next ashes and go to world number one? I think so yes.

Like KP said before the test. You take the good with the bad. Sometimes it goes for you sometimes it doesn't.

 

And as for facing hostile attacks the likes of Boycott, Gooch, Gower, Willis and Botham have as much experience and knowledge as anyone.

 

A lot of the younger players haven't agreed with them on much. Butcher another done who doesn't agree with him a lot.

 

Just spent 5 minutes typing a reply but what's the point? Its like trying to have a reasoned debate about a balcony view with Stevie Wonder.

 

That's right Phil, Man U won a tense 6 pointer at Norwich today and now they're flirting with a UEFA cup place!!

 

Theres nothing you can say. You know nothing about me so stop posting about what i'm like. You haven't a ******* clue

 

6th having played a game more than teams below them. You'd think they were 9 points clear at the top.

 

The future's bright? That'll be the whitewash.

 

Haha Mr.C

It's the lighting.

 

Phil you make it very easy for people to know about you , very easy !!
You spend all day on the laptop/phone or watching sport. Never done a days work , never listen to anyone else`s opinion , cannot take any criticism of anyone you like, but love to pull down others that you dislike and think anyone that was around before 1992 is not worth a **** !
How`s that !!


PS I will just add this, I do not really care if people think this is bullying either, I am fed up of having to read your constant drivel about everything , without you at least having the decency to (a)admit you are wrong and (b) at least let others have an opinion , same as you want to have one.

 

The point is you actually don't know what I'm like.
But oh well. Football tomorrow.
