We're doing to them what they did to us in 1984, 1985-86 and 1988.

They only lost to Pakistan in the last over in the last series
Lets not take away how well England played, like Michael Vaughan seems to desperate to do. If you don't find it enjoyable Michael, hand back your licence fee payers money and fuck off home.
After watching that shite against Leeds, I want to see England be as ruthless as possible, don't find it remotely "sad" like some commentators do, want to see Englandplaying well with confidence.

I'd rather watch a competitive game of cricket, with 2 quality teams.
Watching England win in 3 days against shite like this is boring.

Yeah, hopefully the next game is alot more competitive than this one though matewe will, maybe the current batsmen will get more of a chance in the next game, Jimmy Anderson shows his class again, england 137/9.. Gerrin

Not every team is quality all the time
They'd beat us in the last test we played
Don't do disservice to this England side
It is what it is unfortunately

I was thinking the same thing myself. Just shows how far the Windies have fallen (plummeted).

I watched the 1973,1976,1980,1984 and 1988 home Test series on tv and we never won a single test so this is making up for all that!

But at least if the Aussies were this bad it wouldn't be boring.Now we know how the Aussies felt when they played us in the 1990s

Don't like to gloat but I wasn't even born when the great West Indies team were going about their business
Only ever known them as a poor side led by incompetent officials.

Shannon Gabriel is a cracking bowler if he is fit... and doesn't bowl no balls .
He also has the look of a 1940s Hollywood matinee idol.

Yeah the caveat to the post you've quoted is I wouldn't complain if we beat the Aussies in 3 days.

He does, him and the leg spinner to come in.
I still think its a total myth that these 20/20 players are missing
In reality its Darren Bravo, Marlon Samuels and Jerome Taylor who they miss
They should also be playing Chanderpaul. No logic in him not playing

He's signed a Kolpak deal with Lancashire, so he can't?
