Thank God for the England Cricket Team!

After last night's miserable performance against Montenegro and this morning's inept showing against the French, what a relief it is that England top the world in cricket.

Perhaps the rugby team should now find half a dozen South Africans to bolster the ranks, and maybe Capello could encourage Arteta and a few other Spaniards to play under the English flag of convenience?

If England wants to rule the World in any sport, it seems, we have to overlook little details like whether or not a player was born in England!

With the population England has, why is there an expectation that we have to be the best at everything? How flipping pompous of us. No other country in the world has unrealistic expectations like this country. Face it, we're just not bloody very good at certain things.

At least there's Luke Donald and Lee Westwood at numbers 1 and 2 in the world HF.

Honestly, an England friendly against the Faroe Islands is more important than rugger bullshit.
