Ashes 2010

Well that turned out to be an easy win.. watched it live ( not an aussie in sight at the ground).. was nice to hear the English chanting Man Utd songs :D
Or they could have been Rovers or Burnley or Even Everton Songs there all the same to you :D
 
I've heard a rumour that Skippy is making a comeback, well Pontins obviously passed it now:D

It also doesn't say he's a bloody bad loser either:D
 
I don't know if anyone ever saw Ponting in his prime. But he was one hell of good bat. He was one of the few batsman I would have paid money to go and watch. One of the best in the world without any doubt.

In the Ashes series in 2005, England would have won more decisively had not been for Ponting. I saw him at Old Trafford get a big ton, on not that good a wicket, to stop us winning that match.

He's still a bad loser, can give it but can't take it, only sings when he's winning
 
I admire him as a cricketer, but as a sportsman and a person during a match i think he is an obnoxious,whinging,slimy,rat faced little git:dummy:
 
Had a fab time at the Ashes this time. Have been lucky with the weather and had a great time at the cricket ( no chavvy footie shirts from me). It has been sweet revenge after losing all 5 tests the last time I was here :-)

Some people have all the luck lettie, actully seeing ricky's face in the flesh:mosher::mosher::mosher::D:D
 
Can't let it pass without saying well done to the England team. To win the series 3-1, a great achievement in Australia. Particular mention for Jimmy Anderson,local Burnley lad. who bowled brilliantly
 
Sad news from Australia, it appears that Sydney was totally deserted from 1pm Aussie Time, not even Skippy could manage an appearance as the Barmy Arm celebrate a fab-u-lous Ashes victory down under. One native Aussie, somebody call Warne was heard to say what's all the fuse about this little urn:dummy::dummy::dummy::D:D:D
 
It was never in any doubt, though my 5-0 bet was maybe a bit too optimistic! Well done to Strauss and the lads and a happy test retirement to El Gingero Magnifico! :mosher::mosher::mosher:
