Ashes down under

[rodcurrie]

Not to a brain dead TB donkey he's not Blocky.

Had the bowlers exploited the conditions on the first day , which were the most English like conditions of the match, then the result could have been different.

Most of the rest of the time the pitch and conditions have been similar for both so that first session , where we should have had an advantage, was critical.

However, why let the facts get in the way of a misguided hatchet job on one of our own?

If it wasn't so pathetic it would be laughable but it's not, it's inexplicable from those who supposedly support all things Blades related - unless it can be used to try to make some trivial, nonsensical argument with an attempt at cheap point scoring.

The TB complains when told he's not worth responding to because of the lack of logic in his argument then continues to post illogical clap trap ad nauseum.

Thick as.................

Why keep sayin ya want nowt to do wi me or my posts,then do the complete opposite when ya post Basil Mastermind Fawlty? Ya see i can call you names as well the difference is i don't get all mardy.Good job our Joe hasn't made any captaincy mistakes or we could have lost the first 2 tests easily,oh wait.I think i'll leave this cricket thread alone for a short while and leave it for Our JOE apologists to comment on.

The forcast is for -3 overnight with clouds and showers tomoorow.

Unfortunately that's for Perth, Scotland CBB

Glad I was on a Christmas night out and didn't witness yesterday's cricket. Drinking to forget.

Can we bat out 4 or more sessions with them posting over 700 to give us a target?

Snowball/hell comes to mind.

Pop guns v heavy artillery will not prosper.
