THE ASHES CRICKET SYDNEY CRCIKET GROUND
I won’t go into the games themselves, or indeed the results of the games – at the end of the day we got beaten good and proper, but it really didn’t matter that much. It didn’t matter because, a: we are English and therefore as fans we are used to having high hopes, getting beaten and being bitterly disappointed and b, because the atmosphere was just so amazing with the Barmy Army there, we had such a good time and made fun of our ever-worsening defeat, we left that cricket ground with heads held high, vocal chords aching and a smile on our faces bigger than most of the Australian fans. I have never felt so patriotic in my life.
