Welfare check on the guy who proudly told us he had $2,000 on England to win the Ashes?

Never forget.

Im a mad Australian fan.

But we are cooked.

Outside of Starc, none of our bowling attacked looked threatening at all. I can't see how we take 20 wickets for a reasonable score to be honest - barring England throwing away their wickets.

If England had batted with a iota of common sense since the Ashes started, they would be short odds to be a few days from going 2-0 up. If Neser and Doggett are our next best bowlers then we are in for some hard times in the years ahead.

I have loaded up on England to win the Ashes @ $3.00 before the series; and again @ $6 after the first test.

I'm very confident on this bet, have pretty much decided what I will do with my winnings.

This is beautiful.
 
Australia hasn’t won a series in England in 24 years, still hasn’t stopped tour packages selling out every series
That’s because unlike yourself Australians expect to win.
Australia hasn’t lost there in 10 years and when we have lost we don’t humiliate ourselves. You want to compare away performances?
 
I partied with the original Barmy Army after they won here in 95, they were good lads who loved the game. Australia's just not a nation of singers, that's why I don't think people get what they do, go to a footy match over there and it's virtually all you here.
1995, sure, all onboard. 30 years later it's boring, nauseating and plain annoying. Only thing i will say is thank god we mostly smash them out here as otherwise it would be truly insufferable.

Just let him equate 2-2 series draws (retaining the Ashes) or close series losses with the Australia 5-0 or 4-0 demolition jobs. It's probably a necessary coping mechanism.

With English/European football some of the songs are actually decent and most of the stadium sings to generate a raucous home atmosphere.

The Barmy Army doesn't piss me off that much, but being charitable they are a pocket of mindless tools running a cringeworthy routine "on tour".

Can they at least add some new songs to their repertoire? Mostly same old drivel each year
