Basically of the opinion that Erewhon is in fact a very formulaic and contrived song and that Daniel is never going to complete a full album since it's the only song he's capable of writing

Really mattposting at its finest
>>75730952
KEK, to think you spent THAT much time typing up those lies to feed your massive ego and seek attention on 4chan.
You really are a loser, and you have been EXPOSED as a liar.
You were NOT diagnosed with depression by anyone but yourself.
You are NOT clinically depressed.
You are NOT going through a hard time in your life.
You have NEVER experienced any hardship.
You ARE a young cunt idiot with a massive ego, who pretends to be depressed on 4chan for attention because you have no one in real life to attention seek to because you have alienated yourself by being a delusional vain cunt who thinks he's smart, when you are in fact a retarded idiot who has achieved NOTHING in your life, and you NEVER will.
Stop posting here
Stop coming here.
Stop breathing.
You are absolute human garbage, and a fucking leech on those who are actually worthwhile.
You are nothing and should seriously just kill yourself you retarded piece of shit.
Please reply to this with yet another attention seeking post, you fucking loser.

I remember when Daniel said that /cric/ would "drive a lesser man to suicide" in reference to that post
>>75731420
>There have been some (You)s that I have received that could honestly drive a man to suicide. Really horrific, personal, disgusting attacks from disgusting, bitter people that somehow I just shrugged off as “banter”. A softer man would have killed himself, and I am not exaggerating. The fact that I can honestly read some of these posts about me and my life without feeling anything is incredibly dangerous.

I mean yeah we might be a bit crap at tests in the beginning but it's the only way. Its good for international cricket eventually.
>>75737985
Can't be any worse than Bangladesh were when they got promoted. Their entire team had literally never played long form cricket in their lives when they started playing tests. They literally spent two months learning how to leave the ball.
>>75738001
I look forward to squaring up to meme teams like Bangla and the windies

Windies aren't a meme team. They are literally and unironically about to enter a second golden generation.
Aussie bitch just cancelled my airbnb in Adelaide, now prices are triple what they were.
>>75740239
one of my mates booked a place on airbnb in America but the guy sold the house and didn't tell him
he showed up at the place and no one was there, so he found an unlocked door and fell asleep on the couch. The new owners came back a few hours later and found this Australian guy sleeping in their living room kek
Ended up letting him stay though
>>75740274
Hahaha holy shit, I thought they'd just shoot him. I need to resort of my accommodation for the ashes now and it's gonna cost three times as much.
hoping to go to England for the next Ashes myself Tbh
I hope India don't got to the CT. Whiny faggots.
How much are ashes tix anyway?
>>75740430
Me too, doubt cenno will be pay for it though. Gonna vote labor just in case.
>>75740472
should be $35+ if they follow last year's prices
haven't really looked at them yet since the WA tickets aren't going up for a while
luckily I know some people in England that have a spare bedroom so that shaves a lot of the cost off for me if I do go
I've got tickets for Brisbane and Adelaide test.
>>75740608

why not Sydney or Melbourne? An Ashes Boxing Day test is one of the biggest events in sport.

Adelaide is decent for cricket I guess then. Shitty city, but the South Australians would show up to the opening of a fucking car park in the thousands.
Look forward to lots of empty chairs at the Gabba though, Suicidelanders can't afford tickets on unemployment benefits. Good ground though.

The Ashes really is the best part of my life and I feel no shame in admitting that
>>75740817
I had no interest in cricket until Ashes 2005, for us English folk that was just the greatest. Now I'm wasting my money flying over to australia to watch england get smashed about
>>75740842
same here actually
I used to give one of my mates shit for watching cricket back then since I thought it was boring as fuck. Really just a perfect series, even if Australia lost it. I went to a school full of wogs back then, so there was only a few guys that actually watched the game. After that series everyone became fucking obsessed with it. Our local cricket club had to set up two new teams since literally everyone joined up.
genuinely feel bad for anyone from another country since they'll never properly experience the Ashes. I remember danny saying that the day night test nz played in adelaide was the best game he'd seen which really put things in perspective
>>75740908
danny started watching in 2015 after stopping as a child, he's a pretentious twat that no one should take seriously
>>75740934
Still, can you name a single memorable series New Zealand have played?
There's so fucking many for Australia, England, the West Indies and India. Even South Africa have a few since readmission.
What's the big match up New Zealand have to look forward to? Apparently it's playing Australia, but that's such a one sided rivalry that I can't see them getting any satisfaction out of it.

>Arshad Khan had a bit of a roller-coaster career. The Pakistani off-break bowler represented the green outfit in nine Tests, picking up 32 wickets. He was first picked for the West Indies tour back in 1997-98, and he also played the following year for the team which won the Asian Test Championship in Dhaka against Sri Lanka.
>Until 2001 Arshad was a regular player in the Pakistani squad, but he was subsequently dropped after which he returned to domestic cricket. He was again called back in 2005 for the one-day international series against England, where he bowled economically. But after that, he could not establish himself in the playing XI on a permanent basis.
>After his retirement, Arshad relocated to Australia and became a cab driver.

Us cricket aficionados think he's a traitorous bastard!
>>75760651
yep, but the england management seem to love him because he's a hard worker off the pitch by all accounts. he was the cheapest player in the IPL for a reason, and by all accounts he did badly in the big bash and nobody rated him there. rob key said, a few months ago, that when he was about 20 kent only picked him because he was a good fielder and batted him like 8-9, he was a permanent 12th man and he nearly got released
>>75759735
Eoins done well today but usually his score doesn't make a massive difference. England would still win without him.

The ICC is an anglo conspiracy to take our players!
You're no chance in hell.
You say you've beaten excellent, high quality oppositon in the last few years. I don't know about you but I don't excatly hold the West Indies and Bangladesh in "excellent" regard. New Zealand, while not as bad as those two, are pathetic. SA in SA was an ok achievement, but SA are nowhere near the power they once were.
Your bright new hopes in Strauss, Flintoff and Pietersen are, apart from Flintoff who's ok, overrated. Strauss has made runs against weak, pathetic opposition. His average of 55 will sharply drop after this series. Pietersens made runs in County Cricket, hell even Stuart Law can make runs there. He made runs in ODI but don't get excited over that. He's yet to face one SK Warne.
This idea that the new players will help because they haven't got defeat after defeat in their minds merely means we have a whole new generation to scar. Face it England, you won't come within a bulls roar until the Ashes are secure with us once more.
