I don't think England think they are any good.
Boycott however thinks he is the best batsman to play the game. And such a great team player they ran him out.
He's a tit. A self obsessed tit

aye I know
good thing about that decision means it feels like england have been cheated!
Taylor at six, I telt yah
You say we don't agree. That was word for word what I said when I read that!
Why say it?
What has Jimmy said wrong, whats he meant to say, aye we are shite
Boycott is an arsehole like, think we can all agree on that
Cos he's Yorkshire, speaks his mind and doesn't give a fuck.
Taylor at 6 worked today because he had 45 overs to bat. He wouldn't be such a great 6 if we ever batted well

Ah fuck it, destroyed my own logic there
I think boycs like me is probably sick of hearing our players talk the talk when they are continually failing miserably at walking the walk.
Don't have to say we are just here to make the numbers up but all this talk of this being our best one day side etc is silly. Even michael Vaughan who I think we'd all agree isn't in the same outspoken envelope as sir Geoffrey has spoke of his amazement at how we've talked ourselves up.
I'm awaiting Peter Moores and his positives now!

At least Morgan was honest in his post match interview.

Moores will no doubt give it some ridiculous spin about how well Finn bowled at the end or something

I got up and watched from the start, f***ing bowling was dire, Finn getting five and a hat trick is a f***ing joke, giving them easy height balls outside of off stump isnt the best idea. We just are not good enough, the bowlers cant give a good enough platform to the batsmen, who will probably collapse regardless, f***ing knackered and frustrated

Just for clarification we were robbed. On the brink of victory as well.
If following a Player Review request, an original decision of 'Out' is changed to 'Not Out', then the ball is still deemed to have become dead when the original decision was made (as per Law 23.1(a)(iii)). The batting side, while benefiting from the reversal of the dismissal, will not benefit from any runs that may subsequently have accrued from the delivery had the on-field umpire originally made a 'Not Out' decision, other than any No Balls penalty that could arise under 3.3 (g) above.

I've been looking for clarification of the farcical end to the match, how come none of the officials knew this or are they just as incompetent as their footballing counterparts?
Vaughan said sometimes you need to convince others they can do better than they think.
He also said they need to stop talking and actually do it.
To be fair I've never known an England side talk itself up so much leading into a tournament as this one and it's been without any foundation whatsoever.

He really didn;t say that, he praised the way they had been talking and said it had made him feel more confident they would do well
He said, its now time for the talking to stop, but that was a generic phrase that people say before every build up
you totally misinterpreted that like
I don't think Boycott thinks that at all, or even if he does it's irrelevant, what he's saying is right.
He always speaks the truth and speaks his mind - the bloke is just as passionate about England about us lot and he's hurting. As are we.
The annoying thing is - we've played them ***** four times now this year and not once have we given them a proper game. Even the ones that went to the last over were only due to them taking their foot of the gas.

Remember that this is an Aussie team that not so very long ago were dog shit. Johnson was a complete laughing stock.
Just shows you what can happen when you get a credible manager in place who puts a bit of fight into the team and gets their heads right.
We all knew what would happen when Moores was appointed = nothing of much note. Why oh why do England shot themselves in the foot like this? Bopara instead of Stokes?
how many f***ing chances is Bopara going to get before the ECB finally admit that its time to move on from this ****?

I don't think I did mind.
Do you not think they've been a little overly optimistic given how poor they've been?

Nope
They have been there a couple of months already , and have interviews every day, there is a lot of copy fill and they get asked generic questions
England know fine well they aren't a great side like, just about getting to Quarters and seeing what happens
