Fuckity fuck.

[Captain Turdseye]

We’re fucking shite. 

[Guest Pistonbroke]

So far the better team looks like they are going to win, sad, but that's the game. Not giving up just yet, but we need to build a fucking partnership.

England gonna England 

[Jairzinho]

My stream is a minute or so behind, but when I looked at this thread I saw about five replies in 20 seconds and knew what had happened.

 

They've been good, New Zealand, but we really don't have a balanced "middling" approach do we? We either slap it everywhere at eight an over or look completely at sea.

Game fucking on now show some backbone England 

[Pureblood]

All it takes is one decent knock.  Someone can immortalise themselves, or we can shit the bed.

In fairness you called it

[Bjornebye]

We've got some real talent but fuck me some of them are thick as pig-shit.

We just struggle to adapt on these type of wickets, we always struggle at Lords as a rule. Thought we bowled well, although things could have been better, NZ have just bowled better, rarely erring from a good length. Need Stokes and Morgan to build a partnership to keep us in with a chance, not holding my breath though. 

 

TBF, NZ will deserve to win if they do, plus they are a likeable team. It will also piss all the Toffs off and the Media who would probably have gone OTT on the national pride front.

Yeah, they're sound this NZ side. Imagine if the Aussies had won it? Fuck that.

Aussies will class this as a win mate. 

[Guest Pistonbroke]

Morgan is just wank at these short balls of late, mental problem more than anything.

Sad state of affairs if they're going full Everton.

[Stickman]

No way Englad are getting these the balls doing too much and the run rate is creeping up but I wish they would if just to shut that fat smug cunt Smith up.

Great minds

Some will, obviously not all. Just listen to the likes of Clarke in comms when he's on. 

I actually find it funny that the so called home of cricket will probably be our undoing in this WC. This'll be our 4th final defeat...I think? 

[TheBitch]

This is painful viewing. I don't see where we're getting an innings of 50 to steer us through.

Ha.

[Dougie Do'ins]

Get to 100 without another wicket and just keep chipping away at it.
