Another random "I blame this guy for losing the Ashes" thread

Mark Saxby the massage therapist. Below par performance. If he'd have held up his hand, we'd have easily retained the Ashes.

Also the Queen for making us a laughing stock.

And Mike Hussey's mother, for giving birth to him.

Santa Claus too, for not reading Andrew Flintoff's christmas list, which explicity requested the urn, early enough.

I blame the barmy army for putting too much pressure on the English team.

Oh, and Dickie Bird. The drains being on fire obviously are his fault.

I blame Kevin Pietersen's manicurist. When they won in 2005, his nails were perfect. This time, I've never seen such atrocious quicks. Coincidence? Well, I think the evidence speaks for itself.

I also blame Ian Bells orthodontist. When he looked like the cross between Richie Cunningham and an Ewok, England won. Now his teeth are perfect and they're losing.

Oh and blame Canada.

Simon Jones and his "injury". Injury just another word for soft IMO.

Mahatma Gandhi. If he hadn't pushed for independence, they may have Rahul Dravid and VVS Laxman in their lineup and thus might have saved the test.

Lets not forget Sreesanth, who make the team over Harmison and Anderson.

Let's not go crazy now. Sreesanth has had one good game. He is no where near Harmison, nor will be anytime soon, regardless of how good a series he has. Not even in the same class. Harmison took 7/12 once.

And bowled a wide once that could have easily been taken by 3rd slip if it was on the off side. I know it's just one ball and it desn't say that Harmison is a crap bowler, but I always wanted to mention it. Don't get how any international bowler can mess up that much.
