Why English People shouldn't gamble

Erm so i've just been going through my Betfair account. Unfortunately my Englishness has prevailed, and I have failed to get rich.

I do however defend the betting strategy. Were an Australian, or even a Frenchman to adopt a betting strategy based on England being rubbish, and English betting markets overreacting they would make a killing.

I mean take the cricket team's efforts in T20 this week. Losing to the Netherlands at Cricket was very much what this blog was all about. Suddenly we realised they were the worst team in the history of English cricket. When they thrashed Pakistan a couple of days later they are suddenly world beaters.

It is very difficult being an Englishman. I am looking forward to the Ashes summer with a mixture of hopeful optimism and deep longing dread.

Can I just sneak this in here where no-one will notice it?
