We all say things incorrect, and if that team were Australian they would have won it (let’s see how the Ashes go? I’m saying 50/50 at the moment), you’re all forgetting we didn’t win that game we drew it and won in boundaries scored not runs scored, fine margins and there’d have been a huge inquest if we lost that (there probably will be one anyway concerning the wicket).
Looking back now at the WHOLE of the tournament we’re worthy winners due to who’ve we beaten over the last 4 games, now to start planning for India.
The luck went with us and was against New Zealand and no one deserved to lose that match.
World Champions. Best one day team in the world. Suck it up Barry.
Did we win the world Cup Yes or No.
If yes we must have won the last games by the rules imposed by the ICC so fair and Square we won the match.
Lets face it Barry You do not like England winning at any sport or Saints winning at football.

I’d forgotten about Boult catching Stokes only to step on the boundary rope.
Six instead of out.
Could that game have had any more twists and turns?

Yep, if NZ had scraped home we would have been bottlers who couldn’t cope with the ICC mandated pitches. Spineless hooray Henry’s, chokers who were whipped by the working class gutsy kiwis.
Instead, Barry just looks like a twat.

England celebrate their ‘draw’:
Note how happy the Kiwis look with their draw.

While Barry was sat with his head in his hands contemplating why he wasted a whole day watching the cricket instead of polishing the Range Rover:

Look at the joy of these numpties, celebrating a draw:
Quick before the Sanchez joy vacuum kicks in:
No we agree on something, home wicket and need 242 to win, they would have got an awful lot of stick. I’m just honest enough to admit it, I’m made up we won (they won) and I bet someone says to you today we (they) were lucky to do so and I also bet you don’t jump down their throat…
Goat the match was a draw.
Barry
No it wasnt
By the ICC rules England won by more boundries scored.
An England win.
NB it was not a home wicket it was also prepared by the ICC not the E&WCB
You really don’t ‘get’ sport do you Barry. You’re like the weird mutant offspring of Alpine Saint and Frazer from Dad’s Army. A joy vacuum. It must be hard work dragging those goalposts around every time you’re made to look a twat with your whining and bitching.
I think the history books will say match drawn and by boundaries scored England win.
Home wicket I meant by saying a home match.
So an England win at Lords
Why did you not just say that in the first place then and we can all agree on it

We certainly do, but most don’t do it every single time.
Not true, Australia weren’t good enough to make the final. Who knocked them out?
As for the rest of your post, it’s just a load of excuses, best summed up by @dinger.
Have a think about that Barry. Supporting any sport team has ups and downs and it’s the downs that make the ups so fucking enjoyable. You seem to live in fear of the downs, so as has already been said, maybe following/supporting any sports teams isn’t for you, as there appears to be no joy, even when England win(yes, they did).
I’m a sports fan first and follow my Country second concerning cricket and cricket is totally different to many sports whereby sportsmanship is applauded, I for one want that to continue.
The ecstasy is in the moment, thats it, those 4 overruns are something that I’ve never seen before in cricket so whilst we should be happier than ever concerning the one day game it could have been so so different.
Luck was in our side and that was luck.
Or we held our nerve, showed bottle and grit and found a way to win. All of which you’ve consistently said we wouldn’t.
