1 series means fuck all. We played shithouse for most of the series & people are saying that it's one of the greatest series of modern time.

**Moonax** · 09-13-2005, 06:41 AM

Oh yes - I'm sure that as a Sunderland fan that you know that years of failure make success all the more sweet and enjoyable.

Success?

I don't know it

I bet you are happy that Bristol City spent a load of money in the summer but still get beat 8-1 of teams.

I am very happy to see Shitty get duffed up on a regular basis.

They are Bristol's equivilent of Newcastle.

WOOOO Newcastle. Beating you down Mackem - infinite times more points

**Londoner** · 09-14-2005, 07:02 AM

I was at the parade yeterday in trafalgar square,the parade was not over the top though-moonax. We haven't won it for a long time, it was more relief than anything.But I don't expect too many people on this forum to understand the feeling.And how do you know none of those 'new cricket fans' will be around?Sure some wont, but I think some of them will.But maybe you cna predict the future or something, yeah that's it....

**Moonax** · 09-13-2005, 06:44 AM

Could it be that you played shit because your players are old and shit?

You can bet your arse that none of those 'new cricket fans' will be there next April when the next summer series starts.

Yeah thats what I think in both cases. People comparing this to the 66 WC will only draw

from me. There was a survey at the end of the Ashes and theres still only a tiny percentage of people who can identify even 3 people in the England team. Names I'm talking about not even faces. 10/24 couldn't even name one. In terms of popularity football it is not.

And yeah on the second count. I have been drawn into this series but wouldn't watch another one probably. Might check it out but probs won't be so interested. It'll be even harder for cricket as they move to Sky.

**The Mackem** · 09-13-2005, 06:57 AM

Would be more if Michael Owen could kick a ball instead of letting it go through his legs

I'm just jealous of your points total

**packt up** · 09-13-2005, 06:59 AM

Yeah you're right I'd rather have Jonathon Stead than Owen

**The Mackem** · 09-13-2005, 07:02 AM

They have both scored the same amount of goals this season

**Moonax** · 09-13-2005, 07:09 AM

It annoys me that any genuine achievement gets hyped out of all proportions so it actually loses its meaning. They won a series - but is it really deserving of a parade?

**The Mackem** · 09-13-2005, 07:13 AM

It's the media hype at the end of the day isn't it? It's been plastered all over the news and the papers and the coverage has been so intense that it's been made into something that it's not. What happens if they win the next Ashes series, are they going to have a parade then? Or if they lose? Is the whole of London going to throw rottern food at the team? It's ridiculous really.

**Moonax** · 09-13-2005, 07:30 AM

Once they start to lose again then people will stop supporting the team - and you can bet your arse that Kelly Holmes et al won't be seen dead at the Oval.

That said I would far rather that Andrew Flintoff be a hero to kids than that overpaid junkie Rio Ferdinand.

That is probably the best thing a pom has ever said.

**I refuse to Rosk.** · 09-13-2005, 09:51 AM

Outclassed, outthought, outbattled. What a truly deserved victory from the better side.

**Y2C** · 09-17-2005, 02:05 AM

It's amazing that it would have taken the Poms about 130 minutes to invent the game and about 130 years to get any good at it.

**Londoner** · 09-18-2005, 02:30 PM

Actually Y2C, we've always been good at it, it's just the county game has always been poorly organized and has affected the chances of the international team. The central contracts(I think thats what they're called) have definately helped the fitness of our players, if it werent for them we would've given up after the Lords defeat.

**Mr. Monday Morning** · 09-18-2005, 05:33 PM

Stop rising to the bait, jeez.

**yianni** · 09-24-2005, 03:23 AM

AHAHAHAHAHA GO THE POMS!

**Y2C** · 09-24-2005, 09:49 PM

GO BACK TO GREECE!

**yianni** · 09-25-2005, 01:07 AM

Nah I'd rather just stay here and rape Australia of all their resources.

**Y2C** · 09-25-2005, 03:03 AM

We were known as "The Lucky Country" but then all of the wogs & asians arrived. :foc: :foc:

The only thing I understand in this thread are the titties in post #9.

They were considered lucky coz they were on the other side of the world to the Greeks.

**yianni** · 09-25-2005, 06:42 AM

If you don't like Greeks don't fucking steal our words then.

We live in a democracy, I can say whatever the fuck I want about cunts. Oh shit, sorry, I just used another Greek word in English again, my bad.

**Y2C** · 09-25-2005, 06:48 AM

Cunt comes from the Middle English word cunte.

Stop stealing things like you steal dole money from the hard working Aussie taxpayers. :foc: :foc:

**yianni** · 09-25-2005, 07:09 AM

ahahaha this cunt...or cunte, if you will.

I have a job and you know perfectly well that I do. After all, we worked at the same place

**Y2C** · 09-26-2005, 05:25 AM

Busking for money outside my work doesn't classify as a job.

**Y2C** · 10-08-2005, 01:18 AM

hahaha Australia beat the best team from the rest of the world 2-0 by a combined total of 150 runs in 2 matches.

I bet that Moonax won't come back here until the next time that Australia loses a series.

**yianni** · 10-08-2005, 10:45 AM

ahahahaha although you're a cunt, I have to give you that one.

Moonax only sings when he's winning - which isn't very often.

**Y2C** · 10-08-2005, 07:25 PM

He doesn't even sing when he's winning, he's only singing when Australia loses.

**Kid Robb** · 10-08-2005, 10:40 PM

Bahaha how shit are the rest of the world's best XI.

The Ashes was a mirage. We played shit and England fucked us up with reverse swing very very well.

17 months till redemption.
