Just woke up to find...........**spoiler**
We've beaten the Argies at football, the Aussies at rugby and we're doing the Pakies at cricket and I slept through it

I got up at 4am, I watched us canne the Pakis, I had 1 hours sleep , I watched us hammer the Aussies, I went to the pub, sank 8 pints of Guinness and watched us hammer the Argies, IK then watched us paste the Kiwis. Best day of sport for a long time. I'm goin to bed for a wank (because I'm pissed and the missus isnt interested ) - only thing that can beat it !!!

Amazing how many 'bloody moigrants' suddenly become so patriotic after moving half way round the world to a new country, nothing like integrating in your new home eh? And there's nothing more one eyed or xenophobic than a good old Eng-er-land fan.
God I'm looking forward to the day in the not too distant future I can dump the British Passport in the bin and cut the last ties to the sad little island I had the misfortune of being born in.

Whats this 'awaiting deletion' stuff going on? Are you leaving? Why?
I'm a nosey bugger. Who annoyed you?
Oh, and on-topic. I enjoy watching England getting beaten, regardless of what country I live in.
Has the "We can actually win the world cup" nonsense started yet in England?

I'm actually Scots, and its an interesting question who I'd support if it was Scotland against Australia. To be honest I think I'd be neutral, and just want a good game. Unless of course one team winning meant England didn't qualify, in which case COME ON AUSTRALIA/SCOTLAND!!!
I don't really have a complex about England, just the way newspapers and commentators always talk them up to be the best in the world, 1966, footballs coming home blah blah blah. Just wait, the first game England win in the World cup, and the commentators and ex-pros will start discussing the chances of England going the whole way.

Don't mean to be rubbing it in Fraser, but it was a brilliant game to watch. Had everything. Haven't watched such a good game for ages and then to have that result
