*Official* Fourth Test at Headingley

Well, fair play to ye crims, you've outplayed us by fookin miles here and deserve the win. Sets up what should be an absolute cracker at The Oval, don't think I'll sleep for two weeks now

Lots of questions for England, and it will be interesting to see if Australia stick with an all-pace attack next time out. I think they should drop Clark after that shocking performance in the second innings :ph34r:

Fair play to Oz. Thoroughly merited win and thoroughly professional job done.

Our middle order has been woeful. In fact they'd need to improve to reach the giddy heights of "woeful".

Tres, Ramps & Fred back in The Oval. Back to the future!!

Y'know, I usually don't take much pleasure in thrashings but this one has been so fun solely for the over-the-top goading from the poms since they went one up. The chants, the calls that this is the worst side to tour in years, the booing, the gloating just makes this win so much better.

Finally finished them off. Good win for us, and Mitch gets 5 to signal he's back :happy: Hope we play the same way in two week's time.

MOM: North in my opinion.

As I said before if the Oval pitch turns out to be flat as everyone is saying, then Haurrie should comeback into the team, and though personally I would pick Clark over Siddle in that scenario, but its pretty obvious if Haurrie plays, unfortunately it would be Clark who would be missing out.

Indeed, what a disgrace to celebrate being one up after the arse-raping we took last time, which of course, we heard nothing about from you lot :dry:

Has all been in good humour, had a great laugh with the Aussies at the game the other day and as far as I can tell that has been what it's been like across the board.

And tbf, it probably is the worst Aussie team to tour here in years, largely because the last ones you sent were so good.

All that being said you should take huge pleasure in this, FMD what a massacre

Siddle bowled well in 1st innings...

Hilfy and Johnson bowled well...

Broad had an excellent game as well...

My MOTM would be North for his fine 100

Any other Australian team of the last 15 years would be 2-0 or possibly 2-1 up by this point.

In other news, good work Australia, fair enough, easily the best side the last three days.

Bell and Bopara must go.

Ok England were awful but well done Australia they were really excellent this test, Love watching Johnson bowling like that, watching a really exciting fast bowler is probably the most enjoyable thing in test cricket.

It's not about the celebrating, but how far you guys take it across the board. It's what made 06-07 so good as well - not the fact you guys won 05, but the fact you celebrated and went on about it for years afterwards.

Can't speak for the rest of the country, but it's just the way I am. I'm the same with my footy team.
