Fucking Aussie cunts!, what happened to the 5-0 then Mcgrath!?. :twisted: oh yeah i remember that! what a twat. he thought it would be 5-0 to them or 3-0 if there was rain. i think the aussies have only just realised that we are not the England team of old. i think we have the potential to be the next world dominators for the next 10 years. the aussies are on the down and their players are passed it! |

Leaves it nicely poised though for the remaining two tests. If England can win the next test that'll make the 5th test unbearable!!!!
Ooooh, I could crush a grape!

england should have won that. Harmisons last over was all wrong, and just wasn't really troubling mcgrath or lee enough, not that, that should be hard!

The trouble is now is if the aussies win the next test they retain the ashes  .To be honest though in spite of yesterdays dissappointment, i've been so impressed with the way we've competed with the aussies,it was all i wanted us to do,to give the fuckers a real test for the first time in ages.It feels great,the whole country behind the boys,even people who think cricket is shit are taking notice.Its just a shame that the ecb have sold out to sky,all the interest thats been generated and next summer there won't be any cricket live on free t.v.Money grabbing sell outs. :x |

Sorry but Sky's coverage is way better than Channel 4, the ad breaks every 5 minutes on C4 are beyond annoying. :evil:

I have sky too but think Cricket should be retained by C4, as for the ad breaks - who cares? You're missing nothing other than preperations for the coming over.

It gets on my tits as well, on Sky they use the over breaks to show stats etc and I find it interesting whereas C4 use every possible opportunity for adverts. Even after a bloody wicket! No chance of seeing a replay, you get adverts straight away then the next batsman is at the crease.

sky soon will have everything...decent that is.
Cricket on sky isn't alot better. I reckon it is better with lloyd, botham and colville. on channel 4 you have grieg, atherton who can get annoying, and boycott who does go on sometimes!
commentators make so much difference when it comes to cricket coverage.

i just reckon everyone should have the chance to see something like the ashes, its something the whole country should be able to watch.

I blame the beeb, they should never have let go of the cricket coverage, or at least they should have fought to bring it back to the advertless channel. To be honest though their coverage used to be pretty poor.
