quite true, quite true. one must swallow one's pride and imagine the poor blighter breaking out the old handkerchief and having a good old cry. why, for a year seven school is his very life! for the first few weeks at least, anyway. if he is not liked at school, he is not liked in his mind, and so on and so forth. im too tired for this :D

What has become of this fine institute? One turns one's back for two days and all of a sudden it has become a schoolboy common-room, and all of us reminiscing about the good old days in the school yard, trading stickers for the latest Premier league collection.

Moving on, we shall begin the final lap of our epic conquest to reagain the Ashes tomorrow. I shall watch as much as I can and provide you chaps with as much information as possible tomorrow.

I doubt there is another ol' chap, as I am the only nincompoop who could mis-spell the spanish word toro as it is only with one 'r' and i have two, you see? YFM, what does that stand for ol' boy. Most likely twas me but i do not recognise this.

My father was born in Blackpool. One has heard it is quite pleasant, although unfortunately i have not had the pleasure of going as i grew up in bedfordshire and never visited

May i ask if you have any connection with Pakistan El Torro? If you do, then i will have the answer to my question.

On a brighter note, England were shamed 1-0 to some country in east europe or something, waving England flags with a crest and wearing ROI kits, I am glad that now the FA will take notice of Sven's poor management and sack him. Quite abismal, to say the least!

People from the land of Northern Ireland are no longer permitted on this thread! Now off to touch some wood.

Come on you R's!

PS Yes i seem to be the only person in the world that has developed a liking for QPR, it's nice to have a 20,000 seater stadium to myself! Oh and travelling to Cardiff for the play-off final, i was allocated 45,000 seats.

And what is all this talk of education and the like? Am i the youngest chap on this? Just went into Year 10.

One shall try to immerse oneself in the 2-1 victory of Scotland over Norway last night. I won't have the nerve to walk on the streets of England If they start doing well in the ashes tonight, never mind if they win it or not. As they say, and Englishman divided against his cricket cannot stand......or something along those lines...

Fifth test, The Oval.
Day 1.
England 319-7 (88 Overs)

The day started brightly, with a rousing rendition of Jerusalem from the Barmy Army. Then we won the toss and elected to bat. We were sailing along at 82-0, but then Marcus Trescothick (43) was caught brilliantly by Matthew Hayden in the slips off the bowling of Shane Warne. By lunch, he had also taken the scalps of Michael Vaughan (11) and Ian Bell (0) to leave us on 107-3.

After lunch, it looked like being much the same, with Kevin Pietersen departing for 14, leaving us teetering on an embarrasing 131-4.

Enter Andrew Flintoff.

He built a marvellous partnership of 143 with Andrew Strauss (129) and added 72 himself, including his trademark straight drive six down the ground off Warne. He departed, leaving us to use debutant Paul Collingwood, who was out for 7. Strauss followed soon after, and the score was 297-7. Not as dissapointing as before, but still substandard. Geraint Jones (21) and Ashley Giles (5) remained at the crease at stumps.

Shane Warne returned first day figures of 5-118 off 34 overs. toward the end of play, he was nursing an injury to his wrist. I hope it's really stiff in the morning, so he can't bowl at us. That only leaves 3 mainstream bowlers and they're all seam. Simon Katich might bowl a little spin, but not unless it's an emergency.

Rain is forcast for tomorrow and Saturday, so let's make it a good one, while it lasts.

Was sad to see Flintoff dismissed as early as he was. I say chaps didn't strauss play a goodun today. One thinks 350-370 will be good enough score to put us in good stead for the oz offensive. I don't think we can break the 400 barrier with the tail enders but one lives in hope.

I say my mouths dry will someone pass the Brandy?

I have taken Business Studies, Further Maths, Physics and ICT. Also, my complaint about my ICT grade a few weeks back has made the front page of the local paper O_o. About 80 people in our area were affected, and those predicted at 'A' instead went away with 'C'. Here's hoping it's corrected soon, chaps...

We could get a lot of helicopters and some fire hoses and spray water over the pitch.

They might notice that. The Aussies can bitch rightly about things like that, but there is NO CONTROL over the weather, so we can get away with that one.

We need to regroup and get ready for a fresh assault on the Aussies tomorrow morning.

Hello Coop83!

I wish to join the English Gentlemans club, where one may sit and talk over a lovely steaming cup of tea, as English gentlemen do. I do not know much about sport, but I am distressed by our tragic defeat from North Ireland, and one does hope that we will regain our confidence in time for the World Cup. But we must look ahead to many English victories in the future!


Random fact:Led Zeppelin's song "Houses of the Holy" did not feature on the album of the same name (it was on "Physical Graffiti"). Oh yeah, and post count+1.

I say sack Sven. He's a disgrace (recently on the pitch) and off the pitch (Nancy?)
Get Sam Allerdyce in. He's great, and he's actually English too.

Plus after we lost to Ireland I don't even want us to Qualify. I feel so ashamed. And honestly believe that we'd just embarrass ourselves in front of the world.

*Sniff*Sniff* does one smell footbal? FOOTBAL? Tis not ours anymore! It has been ransacked by those theiving frogs and brazillians! At least when americans are good at a sport, they think of it themselves eh what! No, no English have sports like rugger and cricket! What was the ozzie score at the end of the day? One missed it.

Cheer up old chap. We must feel confident in ourselves in order to have a chance of winning. I know I'll pour out a nice cup of tea. That should make you feel better.

Do you feel better now?
