The main problem appears to be a lack of patience and/or laziness. Anyone on a pushbike weaving in and out of traffic as you could see in part of that footage, really needs their bloody heads looking at, especially in London, which isn't the most cycle-friendly place in the UK anyway. Some cyclists are also seriously lacking in awareness and just plain road-sense, and also will only really stop if they absolutely have to. Incredibly annoying. But then you see the fella in the Audi get out and lamp the cyclist, smart move that in London, with CCTV here there and everywhere. I think the problem boils down to lazy inconsiderate ignorant aggressive idiots who think they're special cases, regardless of what mode of transport they're using. Personally if I'm in London I prefer to jump in a cab or use public transport. Just seems much easier to me.

yes, but I'm not so sure it's a lack of technique as much as the fact that mentally they're all over the shop. can't wait for this tour to be over so I can get back to watching lancs

you either love or hate cricket. you can hate it, but come to love it. but once you love it, that's it, it's with you for life. it's a great game, in all its formats. there's nothing quite like it 10cc had it right. even this tour hasn't changed the way I feel about the game
-
you don't like cricket thenodrog. we understand. great. now @#/? off
-
Or an England fan who'd spent thousands flying over there to see that nonsense.
-
When he was captain he tried to get rid of the batting coach ... who was Flower. I think Flower should go also. England go onto the field with the wrong approach of trying to strangle the game. Cook can't stand up to Flower for whatever reason. England need to get back to basics and drill them in big time and forget micro-managing diet and all of that nonsense. A mung bean curry ain't much help when Johnson's sending down howitzers.
-
Apparently Flower wants rid of Pietersen. Is this the end of KP? If it's him or Flower that has to go, I can't see them binning Flower.
-
Administrators not bothering to go out on the pitch.
-
You can have a comment from me about that. Unsporting, cowardly, sullen.
-
mayne I'm a sore loser dave cos I cannot recall individual examples. but then it's monday morning and I hate my job so perhaps a little difficult to think clearly. with warner he also said a few things about England batsmen looking scared thsat crossed the line
-
England players indulged in bad brhaviour back home when they @#/? on the pitch. disgusting. whilst I think the aussies were worse, especially warner and haddin, let's not pretend english players are angels
-
I disagree, broad has done ok and it's not just the management, it's their represetative on the pitch. he's not a leader of men. let's have someone in who's actually got a pair and has a good cricketing brain and it's not just the management, it's their represetative on the pitch. he's not a leader of men. let's have someone in who's actually got a pair and has a good cricketing brain

I'm minded to recall the forty three all out against the wind ies
-
he did about as well as cook
-
apparently he left one that was right at middle. tit
-
here we @#/? well go again. the tour from hell
-
I'm banging my head against a wall, why didn't Cook stand up to him. It was Cook's call to put Australia in, a somewhat strange decision, he should've backed himself and told Anderson what field he'd be bowling to.
-
There's life in him yet. Was he setting the field, or was Cook? No-one was slating Jimmy this summer.
-
Broad is the stand-out for me. Prior too if he can get back into the side. Cook honestly doesn't know what he's doing. He genuinely has no clue.
-
How can anyone think Carberry is test quality is beyond me. I'm not sure if Panesar is genuinely unfit, but he's been mucked about too. We've really plumbed the depths with this tour. If Flower won't bin Cook as captain, the Flower has to go. Cook cannot carry on as captain, he doesn't know what he's doing.
-
Drop Root and keep Carberry. We're being run by tits.
-
If you dish it out, you have to take it back.
-
Loving the podcasts with Geoffrey, it eases the pain somewhat.
-
I think previous series wins have masked some serious problems with the side which Australia are now mercilessly exposing. cook's inability to captain properly is now there for all to see. it's a mass slaughter now and entirely reasonable for England fans to want to see changes. that doesn't mean throwing the baby out with the bath water but the selectors would be fools to not mske changes. something has gone badly awry in that dressing room. broad as captain has my backing . or prior if he can get his form back
-
Well Dave, that was exacting what I was trying to allude to, perhaps I needed to be less subtle. Questioning his captaincy is not the same as asking for him to be dropped. I mean, it's not exactly a subtle dividing line, surely?
