I was really worried that without Australia and India playing there would be no real racism in this Ashes, lucky for me Uncle Rupert’s new “blog” has stepped up:

“The question “Did the Poms cheat?” was perhaps put most succintly by mate Steve, watching the game online in Chapel Hill, North Carolina, who inquired via text message in the final few overs this morning: “WHY IS THERE A MEMBER OF AL QAEDA HOLDING A F***ING GLOVE AND A FAT POM IN A TRACKSUIT OUT IN THE MIDDLE?” It’s a fair if offensively-crafted question, and one which is now on every Australian mind, none more so than Ricky Ponting.”

Who knew the quesion “Did the Poms cheat?” could be said most succintly by calling a Muslim a terrorist.

I hand’t even thought of that angle.

Otherwise I would have lead with the headline, “England cheat and use terror glover in their attack”.

Dean Jone’s does not write the for the Punch, but perhaps he should make a few calls.

We all know the real reason Australia didn’t win this match, and it has nothing to do with Muslim extremists, it is the IPL’s fault.

    If you object to this it’s just political correctness gone mad.

    “We are not amused.”

    I don’t call Westerners Palestinian-killers, colonialist bastards, Afghanistan’s ravagers, or anything else.

    That’s because they’re not.

    And so-called Islamic extremists are neither true Muslims nor in the majority. They are terrorists plain and simple and have nothing to do with cricket.

    Jay; the term political correctness gone mad is actually lazy clichéd rhetoric gone stale.

    England 12th men (who aren’t really 12th men) in Ashes series is England is becoming quite a theme

    A, you can call Dean Jones or this wanker a colonialist bastard. I don’t mind.

    leg break, I’m sorry you didn’t take my comment with the gravitus in which it was written.

    jrod, can I just call him a wanker?

    And to continue with the racial stereotyping, fancy “my good mate Steve” coming from one of the redneck pigshit American flyover states.
