Ashes

Loving the Ashes today.

After getting more than a few emails and comments from Aussies on Friday, today is a good day. They're all strangely quiet???

Re: Ashes

What made me smile was the way it was reported in the news yesterday "Poms fight back with hope of a draw". Okay so we didn't win, but the press didn't report that it was even a possibility. lol. :)

Surely even a biased pom could admit there has been lots of positive articles all over the Australian press about englands chances this series. ;)

Positive towards the poms? It's usually negative towards the Aussies you mean? :thumbsup:

Ive gone native, Im supporting Ponting and the green + gold, although I must admit I prefer the 3 lions uniform. Its boring supporting england, all my mates in UK would have nothing to give me gip about.

I am firmly of the belief that this draw is just the usual England performance, a heroic fightback (the draw) - establishing hope that England can triumph and building up belief that the national side can return glory to the shores of Britannia --- before a crushing defeat.
