The Ashes

Job done! ...

[Leyton Gooner]

Ashes coming home! (again) Now go and smash them in the last two so they don't get any big ideas going into the return down there

Tempting fate perhaps but as I type 31-0 cook and root.... time for a huge opening partnership?

You should read some of the shite he writes about Wenger!!

AH ...

Although still only one wicket down...

[DB10GOONER]

AH ...

I've a feeling you might just have driven the second nail in there, Steve...

Tempt fate enough and fate decides it's eaten too much and leaves you alone I reckon.

He's lucky it's Wenger's fault for Cook and Pietersen getting out before tea so I've moved on from his jinxing the first wicket

Aussies need 299 to win. Good work by England to get there, especially after losing Bell and then Prior pretty early on.

Probably a few too many on a pitch that has misbehaved quite a lot this morning, if Swanny turns up (and he'll definitely fancy it after his batting) he can win this game for us on his own. Aussies will make a decent fist of it and I'm sure they'll have at least one substantial partnership at the top/middle of the order but England should definitely defend this.

120-1 at tea... you still confident?!

Warner gone! big wicket. Game on!

The Aussies are in full wobble mode now

179-6 and no Agar to rescue them!
