England v NZ, 2nd Test, Manchester, 23rd-27th May

Same again.

The ameoba even threw in a reference to Collingwood's average just to f*ck with me.

So that's Moores and Giles ("MBEs, one for all, all for one," and all that) who'll fight Collingwood's corner. Even if Whitaker and that other bloke were to take the opposite view, Cap'n On Track would have the casting vote.

Same again.

At least with Duncan Fletcher you got the impression that there were certain levels of performance which gave him the proper shits and he wouldn't stand for it. Ruthless, this latest clique 'aint.

Rudderless. Namby-pamby. Girly men. But not ruthless.

They are English . . . but this is no time for cheap shots with English cricket in crisis . . .

You can't trust Whitaker's opinion. He must be biased towards all the fatties. Key, Sales and Ormond are single-handedly keeping his chocolate factory in business.

In fact, if Moores just says "Sussex" at selection meetings, I wouldn't be surprised if Whitaker restricts himself to "blubber - more blubber".

That happened after the ashes, and after all the talk, nothing actually changed.

New Zealand - FFS.

England and Whales Cricket Board.

The whole organisation needs to be flensed, then rendered for tallow.

btw, why is this thread still here ... surely three photos of Rikki is enough?

It's an England win.

We're milking it until SA arrive later this summer
