3rd ASHES TEST: @ Headingley, Leeds July 6-10, 2023

[Fangs]

We should remove our diplomats from London. Perhaps a trade ban on all Kyle Minogue related imports. Maybe even cut off their access to Home and Away.

 

[JamesRustle]

Bullshit, how is Leeds racist?

Pissed up scumbags yes, many Leeds United football fans abusing the Aussies and perhaps a hostile atmosphere but not racists the fans have nothing to do with what went on at Yorkshire County Cricket club.

Prison officer 'encouraged terrorism through neo-Nazi rap songs', court hears

Sheffield Crown Court hears Ashley Sharp - who worked at HMP Leeds - would share songs that made reference to killing Jewish people, referred to gay people as "degenerates" and that told people to "pick up" where Hitler left off - which he said was all parody.

Oh yeah and YCCC, favorite sons Woodgate and Bowyer, it goes on... and on.

Looking forward to a playful and resepectful crowd, but not confident... Will you be threre?

Yes, but the art is getting a bite.

Never said Leeds was on its Pat Malone.

 

[yobbo84]

It's obvious from their boorish behaviour since Day 1 of the first test they were looking for a fight - well they found one and have been found seriously out-classed.

 

[AlwaysGreen]

It seems England and its fans are only entertained when things are going their way.

 

[mozza91]

Now England are glad they’re 2-0 down so they can win 3 back to back to win the series.

Problem is they won the toss in the 2nd Test, had the best of the overhead conditions, we played as stupidly as possible with a bowler down for most of the Test and still beat them.

Delusionball is in full swing.

 

[gUt]

Now we've got the spectacle of Piers Morgan getting Boycott's take. Boycott compared the Carey stumping to f**king Bodyline. No one can whinge like a pom. Let's grind these merkins down.

 

[Sime_11]

to wrap the ashes up 3-0 after 3 games - would that be the death of Bazball?

 

[PARRA_FAN]

We should remove our diplomats from London. Perhaps a trade ban on all Kyle Minogue related imports. Maybe even cut off their access to Home and Away.

We tried cancelling Neighbours but the Poms called us cheats lol

Leeds fans’ horrid racist chant

The vision was accompanied by the caption: “Disgusting to see that Leeds fans use causal racism like this. It’s not on.”

I guess Leeds Utd fans need something to be angry at after they got relegated last season.

Hahah how f**king embarrassing

Haha oh dear now the PM is involved. I mean no one was listening when Piers Morgan came out so lets the get the PM's opinion lol

I think the one Pom who has agreed with the dismissal was Strauss, he's probably their last captain with class.

 

[AlwaysGreen]

Bazball have now lost their 3 last games.

They were good against a deplorable South Africa who we spanked even harder, adequate against a kiwi team in decline, excellent against a pakistan team with an inexperienced bowling attack on roads.

Like Baz himself bazball works against minnows, when conditions suit slogging and when there's not much to play for. Not so good when the pressure is on.

 

[AlwaysGreen]

The first part is petty, immature, typical news ltd rubbish. But then the delusion.

https://www.news.com.au/sport/cricket/ben-stokes-responds-to-crybaby-label-says-england-set-to-come-back-to-win-ashes-32/news-story/0914be5261496b1056ba2311a81c358a

“We have to win these three games to get this urn back.

“We‘re a team who are obviously willing to put ourselves out there and do things against the narrative.

“We won 3-0 against New Zealand, we won 3-0 against Pakistan in Pakistan. We’ve won three games in a row twice, all we’re thinking about is winning the series 3-2.

“Now, these three games are a better opportunity for us than we’ve ever found ourselves in before.”

A better oppurtunity would not be to put yourself in the position to have to win 3 in a row.

And bragging about winning 3 in a row before like its never been done before.

They're off their heads.

 

[bazza]

Now we've got the spectacle of Piers Morgan getting Boycott's take. Boycott compared the Carey stumping to f**king Bodyline. No one can whinge like a pom. Let's grind these merkins down.

He could have compared the English bowling and field settings on day 4 to bodyline

 

[bazza]

to wrap the ashes up 3-0 after 3 games - would that be the death of Bazball?

it will depend what the score is on the "feels like" scale and how many games are voided

 

[TheParraboy]

As long as Bill Bailey can still tour here..

 

[bazza]

If they lose this one they can say it should have been a 6 match series
