The Freddie Flintoff 'Eat Your Words' Thread

[superkingdave]

Agreed.

I think India will beat England 3-0 at home.

just like the last time England toured with a side not half as good as this one eh?

 

[Swervy]

I'm consistantly right.

the irony of that one statement!!!!!

 

[SJS]

I'm consistantly right.

I am marginally to the left of centre.

Rumors circulated that Flintoff is a chucker too.

So still wanna see where the front foot was.

Still can't accept it can you?

 

[Shane Warne]

Still can't accept it can you?

Not until I see.

Because I know that the umpires can't be relied on to do a job.

If only they were as perfect as you. Should we send you our congratulations via prayer?

 

[King_Ponting]

If only they were as perfect as you. Should we send you our congratulations via prayer?

Or via letter bomb?

 

[Shane Warne]

If only they were as perfect as you. Should we send you our congratulations via prayer?

No, just listen, learn and take heed of it in future.

that is all I ask.

Yes, like they did when turning down the Kaspa LBW...

One contentious decision finally goes in Australia's favor, compared to about 10 against so far this series.

 

[marc71178]

Not the first one though.

The no ball dismissal at Lords (another you seem to overlook)

 

[Shane Warne]

Which was that one?

What about all the decisions over the last series vs NZ that went your way. With Vettori?

Don't blame losses on that stuff.

 

[Shane Warne]

Which was that one?

*Crickets*

Wonder where Mark suddenly disappeared to.

 

[Mr Mxyzptlk]

Who's Mark?

 

[Shane Warne]

Who's Mark?

This has probably been raised, but the same goes for Brett Lee. He really refused to give up after being carted in the first innings.

 

[Jamee999]

Lee did do amazingly well yesterday, the best tailendder innings for a while (but not as hard hitting as Harmison's 42 in South Africa)

 

[Langeveldt]

kallis cant bowl, and the sooner people realise that hes rubbish the better.

Hence him having a lower bowling average than Flintoff.. Not to mention averaging about 20 more per innings... Averages aren't everything, but they easily disprove a lot of "theories"

 

[marc71178]

Yes, and your's can be disproven by looking at his bowling from 2003 onwards...

47 wickets @ 41.12, but 11 of those came at 9.63 against Zimbabwe.
