For anyone who wasn’t convinced that England have the best supporters in the world, try this on for size.
A Scotsman sold his house so he could go to Australia to watch England play in the Ashes.
Edinburgh-born Allan Fairlie-Clarke, 31, says he doesn’t regret his decision despite England’s poor start, reports the Mirror.
After losing his job […]
There’s no doubt that the Brisbane test was a great cricket match with a little something for everyone, and the sight of the Gabba full up to the rafters with fans and the noise and, wow. I would love to have been there.
Cricket Australia later announced five-day record crowds for the Gabba of 164,747, 77% […]
Maybe this will make a series, or maybe this just won’t be bettered. In Ponting’s post-Brisbane gloat, when discussing Glenn McGrath:
“He had his knockers leading in to this Test match and I know he was keen to prove them wrong”
(emphasis added, from link)
Glenn McGrath’s knockers? Those will be his manboobs from being old and […]
The fact that the game even made it to 5 days is at least testament to England’s stubbornness. Sure, people will question why Ponting did not enforce the follow on, which would have conceivably ended the game inside 4 days, but still, yet another* example of Australian arrogance. It wasn’t good enough to beat England, […]
There’s not much to be said for the state of the game, and despite Paul Collingwood and KP salvaging a bit of pride for the English, it came too late - in fact, in true England style - when the game is lost, we’ll start to play. Man, I’m getting cynical.

The thing that defines all English fans of any sport - rugby, football, cricket - is that we’re hopelessly optimistic. We always believe we can do it. Sneak a cheeky one without anyone noticing. As Kevin Pietersen and Ian Bell took to the field on the morning of Day 3, still requiring some 350 runs […]
You can’t take it away from the Aussies that they do play some beautiful cricket. I enjoy watching cricket, and I’ve not seen much better cricket than today. Australia were clnicial, precise and deadly. They did their job brilliantly, starting with a glorious 196 from Ponting, and backed up solidly by runs from pretty much […]
Despite the hype and build up to yesterday’s first day, there was always a nag in the back of my mind, a kind of “impending doom” feeling. And despite only being half awake, not even really believing that it was all about to start, getting over the shock of Giles getting the nod ahead of […]
We’re now T - 12. Day 0. Ground Zero. Blastoff. I mean, we can almost taste the sweat. Hang on. It’s nearly here. Months, nay, years of anticipation and build up will end tonight. I for one, am quite literally wetting myself.
I am one of many who is not so fortunate to be jetting off […]
