whats the score JMG?

( Mrs Sp@m, Sat 6 Jun 2009, 17:59, archived)

We won 4-0.
Hooray and that.

YAY!
We don't have Setanta so I've packed mr sp@m off to watch it with my dad. He will be pleased.

I still can't believe England lost to the Netherlands in the cricket

( Boris Johnson's Press Secretary, Sat 6 Jun 2009, 17:59, archived)

In all fairness, and I'm not saying England aren't shit, because they are
anything can happen in Twenty20. Scotland nearly beat New Zealand this morning, and India lost to Ireland last week.

Yup.
All a country needs is a couple of sloggers and a bit of luck.

England?
What idiot decided to hold it at a football stadium, when the national football side were playing?
Terrible thinking there at the RFU.

indeed, but england did win, and are improving
although the argies were a bit off

Oh hai
Tomorrow is home time. I should be packing. HURRAY.

Football is over, JMG.
It's time to throw your no doubt considerable weight behind England's cricketing heroes, who have managed to dupe the Netherlands, and quite possibly the world, by lulling them into a false sense of security by staging a humiliating defeat at Lords.

Good hustle, I say.

Shittest game ever.
Why did none of the players swap shirts at the end? I thought that was a bit harsh on the Kazakhstan players

They'll probably do that in the tunnel, MoT.
Plus did you miss Cole giving his shirt away?
( Jam Master Geordie Hero of B3ta., Sat 6 Jun 2009, 18:02, archived)

No, I saw that,
but that was to a photographer.

Some of the Kazakh players were very good. I liked their number 7

It involves men and a ball and a lot of grass, running, sweating and spitting.
I approve of all of these things except the last.

Nobody likes spitting.

Jammy, say you get your dues, finanicaly...
What would you do to help whip this country into shape?
( G/PP 💩💩💩💩💩&#128, Sat 6 Jun 2009, 18:01, archived)

The re-establishment of sporting events held between schools.
The fat youth of today have nothing to burn their cuts off with.
( Jam Master Geordie Hero of B3ta., Sat 6 Jun 2009, 18:03, archived)

Bring back boxing.
I reckon if I take up something like Syncronised Swimming or Bowls, I could make the 2012 team.

Did they put a stop to that?
Shocking!

I was worried early on
Thankfully Heskey single handedly won the game for our boys

I think we're sadly lacking up-front to win the WC.
:(
( Jam Master Geordie Hero of B3ta., Sat 6 Jun 2009, 18:03, archived)

I'd like to see Carlton Palmer returning to the game.

(rnuk http://flickr.com/rnuk, Sat 6 Jun 2009, 18:06, archived)

Who wouldn't?
We lack a gangly-legged midfielder prepared to humiliate himself for Scandinavian gain.
( Jam Master Geordie Hero of B3ta., Sat 6 Jun 2009, 18:06, archived)

I think the whole side lacks bottle
Most of them are good enough, but teams like Brazil, Italy, Spain, Argentina all play like they believe they can win games with ease. England look terrified against everyone until they score.

no Ian Rush/Peter Beardsley/Luke Chadwick?

( Gilgamesh gazed in wonder as Frampton came alive, Sat 6 Jun 2009, 18:12, archived)

First two are retired and I thought the idea was to have a "good" team,
so no luke Chadwick
