[QUOTE="Goodey, post: 843723, member: 69270"] Moaning about England achieving this has only come about because of NZers making a huge deal out of the 18 test run legitimising them as the best side ever. It didn't, what made them the best side ever is having some of the best players ever at their best and winning them two world cups. Now people are trying to come up with reasons England's matching that record 'doesn't count' because England are not the best side ever, which is dumb as ****. Winning sequential matches isn't supposed to make you the best side ever. No one ever said it did before the NZers started it. It's a distinct record in its own right. Ultimately any argument along the lines of it 'not counting' is just pandering to the widely unnecessary treatment of NZ as special and to be treated differently from everyone else. and they already get enough of that. NZ are better than everyone else, by a distance. Let that be enough for you, you *****. [/QUOTE]
