It's unsurprising, I suppose
As Xavier fucking Doherty has just been thumped all over Adelaide by the man he was supposed to terrorise, just because he's left-handed, the media were bound to cry out for the return of Warney. Says a lot about the depth of shit they find themselves in.

They can reanimate The Don for all I care, Jonathon Trott has a higher average in Ashes tests anyway. Slightly fewer games played, admittedly.

I care not a jot for cricket
but it is nice to see us shock the Aussies. Those smug cunts.

we had some training from an Aussie called Mick at work a while back
something wasn't working right so he called it a mongrel. That was excellent.

I used to call coffee breaks smoko because that's what the crew called them when I was on the ship
I found out yesterday that originated in Aus.

Did they make excuses for you while you were on a smoko?
You strike me as someone who's used to being covered by seamen.

We should bask in the glory while we can.
You would have thought that being basically british, the aussies would be ok with losing at sport.

I plan to bask harder than most
I was too young to properly appreciate it the last time we won an Ashes series in Australia and have endured the constant hurt of watching England being continually twatted by a truly great Aussie team on countless occasions since

They're generally pretty good losers

Just because the call him Xavier doesn't make it so.
