Don't worry Brendan. England have, for years, sporadically imitated competence, even excellence, at one day cricket, only to lose momentum. Even this summer's 3-1 defeat to NZ was commenced with a commanding 100+ run win, switch-hitting sixes and all.


Like my Scottish granny used to say about good weather - it's nice out the now, but we'll pay for it later.

Well that was quick. Not often you can say that Andre Nel top scored with 13.


Right, now all the boys have to do is come out and bowl England out for less than 83 and they?ll be drinking snakebite in the nearest Walkabout before you can say, ?drunk aussie girls.?

I really don?t know what to think about this. Should I be impressed with England? Should I be astounded at South Africa?s terrible performance in the form of the game that they normally excel at? Should I put South Africa?s poor performance down to the quota system forcing white players out of the team? Should I just put it all down to Kevin Pietersen?s charmed captaincy? Is it beginner?s luck or is the guy actually this good?


I don?t care what is going on in the South African camp you don?t win a test series as impressively as they did and then come out and lose this badly and repetitively.

At the end of the day, they won the series that really mattered. Remember England were destroyed in Australia in the last ashes, and then went on to win the one dayers. The hard wrk had all ready been done by the Ausies.


That said, it is nice to see England looking good, and I hope they can take it in to their test form!

    • This is a remarkable interpretation of history. Wikipedia (with more footnotes and citations than you could shake a shitty stick at sez: The austerity programme was initiated in 2010 by the Conservative and Liberal Democrat coalition government. In his June 2010 budget speech, Osborne identified two goals. The first was that the structural current budget deficit would be eliminated to "achieve [a] cyclically-adjusted current balance by the end of the rolling, five-year forecast period". The second was that national debt as a percentage of GDP would fall. The government intended to achieve both of its goals through substantial reductions in public expenditure.[21] This was to be achieved by a combination of public spending cuts and tax increases amounting to £110 billion.[26] Between 2010 and 2013, the Coalition government said that it had reduced public spending by £14.3 billion compared with 2009–10.[27] Growth remained low, while unemployment rose. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_Kingdom_government_austerity_programme From memory, last time around they were against the LTNs and competing with the Tories to pick up backlash votes - both failed. They had no counterproposals or ideas about how to manage congestion or pollution. This time around they're simply silent on the matter: https://www.southwark-libdems.org.uk/your-local-lib-dem-team/goosegreen Also, as we have seen from Mr Barber's comments on the new development on the old Jewsons yard, "leading campaigns to protect the character of East Dulwich and Goose Green" is code for "blocking new housing".
    • @Insuflo NO, please no, please don't encourage him to post more often! 😒
    • Revealing of what, exactly? I resurrected this thread, after a year, to highlight the foolishness of the OP’s op. And how posturing would be sagacity is quickly undermined by events, dear boy, events. The thread is about Mandelson. I knew he was a wrong ‘un all along, we all did; the Epstein shit just proves it. In reality, Kinnock, Blair, Brown, Starmer et all knew as well but accepted it, because they found him useful. As did a large proportion of the 2024 intake of Labour MPs who were personally vetted and approved by Mandelson.
