England is more of a footy loving country, not sure many are interested in cricket.

yes england are shite
we can beat, other nations....but when it come to the aussies we suck
our middle order is weak now thorpey isnt playing....all this hype at the start and we cant even compete.....wayward bowling and lackluster batting, and shit fielding

mind we dropped 6 or 7 catches... blatent ones..... i think any side is gonna struggle to win a game playing like that
i think the other tests will be a lot closer
pretty much sums up wot i was gonna say.
Fair play to the aussies they played really well in spells. Pieterson did us proud tho batting superbly even against some very good bowling from mcgrath and warne.
Bell will be fine, so he got done by shane warne, him & 500 odd others. He has the technique to come out of this, thorpe has a bad back, what would happen ? well Brett Lee would bounce him straight into the body, and hurt him even more. We've been great for 2 years and now after 1 defeat people are so quick to put us down. typical british type media shit

our fielding overall was crap, the aussies got off easier than they could have.
