| Well as it seems that everyone here in England seems to be fairly obsessed with these three, I thought I'd ask you who you thought was the most popular |

Both KP & Panesar are born in different countries I think,it's probably Flintoff because he's a true blue englishmen. ------------- Check out my blog http://crictopia.blogspot.com/ pretty bad though... |

| I said Monty P purely because of the cult following he already has. It's so funny watching the test and watching how excited the English fans get. It's good for the game really. |

Isint Beckham or Johnny Wilkinson Englands most famous sportsman currently.Its between Flintoff,Beckham,Wilkinson. ------------- Check out my blog http://crictopia.blogspot.com/ pretty bad though... |

Wilkinson  Nah, it's Beckham, Owen, Gerrard, Flintoff and Pietersen I'd say. Maybe honourable mentions, no, actually no-one else. I was going to say Henman, Button and some rugby players but they're all doing rubbish right now. |

Yeh you're right. I looked up that dreaded Flintoff to see how good he actually was. ------------- Cricket watcher but tennis player :) |

What sledg ment was that just because you look up someones stats it does not mean you like the player. Eg. i cannot stand Jaques Kallis, but i looked at his stats to compare him to flintoff. ------------- 5-0 You Beauty!!!!! Thanks for the many fantastic memories Marto, Langer, Warney & Pidg |

Flintoff is more popular I think, even though KP is my favourite player. ------------- County Sim on extended break until I've got less work and more free time. When I have a specific date, I'll post it in the thread. |

| Right Now I'd Say Andrew Flintoff because he is getting so much publicity with his injury and all that |

Yeah, but hey no one in crickets getting much publicity at the moment with the world cup on. ------------- |

| I'm sure it is Andrew Flintoff as everyone knows him. The same could be said for KP too. But I would say more people like andrew. Because he is an excellent bowler and he slogs. |

I think Freddie is the most popular. People are most obsessed with him. He is the greates allrounder, he is this and he is that. Its got to be him. Anyway its a close poll. ------------- |
