Ashes fever!

Roundhouse_Kick · 11-22-2006, 06:26 AM

It starts tonight!??

Anyone else braving the long night to watch us teach the aussies another lesson??

Seriously though, I'm quite worried. We're without many key figures of last year's team (vaughan, jones, trescothick, harmison and flintoff not 100%) And if we get off to a bad start this series could be over really fast!

I can't say I'm really a fan of cricket, however I do find watching the ashes on tv to be quite enjoyable

. Interestingly, my Dad left for Australia on sunday to go to them.

I think it may have been the fact I went to a game between two local english teams once. My god that was boring!

I thought it was like an Ashes of the Wake appreciation thread or something at first.

I would love to watch it live but some of us actually have to get up for work in the morning so I will have to stick with Sky's and the BBC's evening highlights. I love International Test cricket. I really don't fancy Englands chances mind.

I went to the final day of the old trafford test in the last series. My god it was the best live sporting event I've been to.Seriously. The atmosphere was UNBELIEVABLE...the place exploded every time we got a wicket and the tension at the end was unbearable! Shame the beer was so expensive.

I can't watch county cricket (especially the long slooowww 4 dayers) but I don't mind watching the test matches (when we're involved obviously). I have to get up at nine tommorow so I'm going to watch the 1st couple of hours, hope the boys get off to a flyer.

1 hour to go, COME ON ENGLAND!!!
