And i don't mean Crystal Palace. Waste Ham must surely be the most basic, skill free team ever seen in the top flight.

Authentic?

Playing home games in UAE/Sharjah. For the moment. But where are the Paks heading next for their 'home' base? Moscow? Iceland?

Place your bets (so to speak)

Don't tell me...not the exciting Alan Curbishley??

Looks like the Poms are going downhill after a period of recent success. Is this going to last a few years or are there some top players coming through? Mate, Prior looks finished. Swanny coming close to the end. Root been found out? No pace bowlers to speak of. I'm crying over it mate.

I reckon a 5-0 is now on the cards. A return to the good old days as the Poms are sent packing. Yep....5-0 it is i reckon. Can't see them even scoring 250 in an innings. Our bowling is like a throwback to Lillee & Thomson. Plane sailing. Hope i'm not trotting out too many cliches.

It's called mental disintegration according to Steve Waugh. Hate to trott that old line out again....

The spineless Poms are falling apart, chooks to a man.

I reckon that Matty Prior will be next on the plane.

Mate, i truly reckon we will beat the Poms 3-1 (we have to give them one Test) with Clarke's captaincy being the real difference on home turf. The pace attack has pretty much got the Poms worked out although i am more worried about Root batting lower down and perhaps Carberry may play a couple of decent digs.I am not worried about Swanny this time and their attack seems to be relying on height which is pretty one-dimensional in my book. I don't reckon they will score the big totals and we will win the big moments and the big sessions.

3-1 Aussies.

A little left field but they are playing well and have a core of ENGLISH (remember them?) players.

Never a penalty in a million years. The ref should be demoted into the conference.

YouTube has changed the way comments work to not appearing in your 'inbox' anymore which is ridiculous, you now post on Google+. But now there is no 'reply' function to other peoples comments below videos on YouTube, does this mean you can no longer actually reply??

The Indian Ricky Ponting is about to play his final Test match. Will he be clean bowled by an obscure West Indies off-spinner? Or will he scramble into double figures?

In the 'good' old days of home (many would say biased) umpires Sachin would not have been given out LBW today. Even if he was hit ankle height in front of middle stump he would not have been given out before the advent of neutral umpires.

I only really knew him from the 80's and his own show. What was he doing back then?

What a complete and utter disgrace, a country with a football tradition as long as Englands, appointing foreign mercenaries such as Flatulent Crappello and Sven Gormless Erikkson. Italy, Spain, France, Germany etc would NEVER appoint foreign managers. Countries such as Mozambique, China, Mongolia appoint overseas managers because they have no football traditions as such.

England is a laughing stock on the international football scene.

The man who crushed Harby, Sachin, Ganguly and many other Indians. Boom Boom transcends the game to stand almighty over the other so called allrounders???

Sachin never looked comfortable facing the devastating spin of boom boom Afridi. Was this the bowler that Tendulkar hated facing the most?

The manager formerly known as "The special one" seems to have lost his iron grip.

His Chelski team have no heart.

Horny Goat Weed, Dormesan sleep with Valerian root etc etc.

I have taken these things to absolutely no effect whatsoever. Is there any scientific proof that they work? Has anyone had any success with herbal ingredients?

I reckon it's all a bunch of POPPYCOCK and HOCUS-POCUS myself.....

Rather than straight Urdu and Punjabi? I have heard British Pakistanis speaking a strange dialect that does not sound like Urdu or Punjabi in Luton, Bedfordshire.
