Well done England! Haha! Still remember some comments by the English members here when the first test was on. Guess sometimes being pessimistic really helps.

Pessimistic doesn't help.
I rule with my predictions.
Aus go 4th in the ICC rankings. Ouch.

 

[Leicester Fox]

Really amazing feeling. I guess the Aussies aren't that upset as Australia-India is more important though.

 

[angryangy]

Damn this time difference. Where are those Australians? I must mock them.

I've been here the whole time, feeling so alone

 

[DJ Ager]

Get in! Well done England! We have won the Ashes!

England needed minor miracle to win the Ashes, and although I thought it wouldn't happen it has! Get in! Shame I couldn't watch it being on Sky, but still, YES!

Good series as well, England winning the pivotal moments in the series but for Headingley, but evenly matched.

King Broad then Colin?

 

[Leicester Fox]

All the Aussies who didn't stay up should be ashamed. Nothing like a few tears at a ridiculous hour, it just makes it feel all the better when you win next time.

It does. Whenever an English member posts anything pessimistic here, the next day England sets the stage on fire.

It's part of our culture, it means that we can prepare for disappointment and celebrate like mad when we win. It's part of the pain and pleasure of being an England(and Wales cricket fan). But while I thought Australia were more beatable, the England team didn't convince me, but we have done it!

 

[King Pietersen]
