What the hell is going on? What a load of f***ing shite. They look like they have never held a f***ing bat before. Fuckwittery of the highest order.
 
Not even in my worst nightmares did I think that after 35 minutes of play we'd be 17-4. Looks like we've found new depths to plumb to.
Athers pre match was trumpeting "there are 3 quality players to come, Cook, Bell and Pietersen".

30 minutes in, two of the buggers are out already.:oops::lol:
 
Ian Bell jumping around in the crease BEFORE the ball is bowled by Johnson.[DOUBLEPOST=1388794219][/DOUBLEPOST]3 times in a row. There's footwork, then there's being Tigger.
 
every captain does when their team is getting torn a new arsehole.

by all accounts his stature, demanour and inspirational qualities are without repraoch... but obviously neither of us would really know much about this, so it seems a strange thing for you to be critical of...

every captain maybe but we needed a leader the team is crying out for leadership and direction and im not seeing any evidence of that. And if as many suspect the coaching and preperation have been inadequate why has he allowed this to happen does he not have a voice?

atherton questioning him now and strauss trying to excuse him

First thing I noticed. Clarke brings in another close fielder straight away. Cook would have 9 on the boundary.

Might be doing him a disservice, might just be his face, but he looked like he'd shit himself on the way to the crease.

Can't really blame him like, the world class players ahead of him have just mentally collapsed. There you go son, your turn.
