David Scott Ticket Scam Update

[Chris Jameson]

The lack of respect shown in this thread is staggering, I honestly think it's a new low where H&V is concerned. I'm sickened by what I have read.

Cricket is bloody wonderful.

[peter w]

You're only saying that because Yorkshire are top t' bluddy table.

[Percy McCarthy]

Ok Paulie
You will have to stick to watching those 200k a week Prima donnas mumbling the anthem then a piss poor performance.
Golden generation ??
3 lions on my shirt
I'm trying

Golden generation, more like a fucking golden shower.
I too don't really dig rugby but I'll be a bit more grown up than some on here and say each to their own, if you like it good for you. And it's better than cricket, now that is fucking shit. :-)

I'd like cricket more than football if it weren't for this bastard emotional attachment to the Villa.

Appropriate Weller lyric time:

Gentle rain, here it comes again,
Rattling round your window, threatening pain.
Turning like a wheel dragging a heavy stone.
A weight that ties you down that you will never own.
If I could be the sun I'd shine in your life,
If I could be the rain I'd rain from your eyes,
And wash away the emptiness you feel inside.

I too think Cricket is shit. Any sport where they call it a draw if it rains is not a sport in my opinion. It's just a game, like tiddlywinks or garden-sized Jenga. Just less enjoyable.

I don't mind cricket. I just don't really understand it to any depth.

I am a great fan of sticking it up the Australians (not literally), though, in any form that can take, so keep an eye out on the Ashes and stuff like that.

The thing that pisses me off about rugby is that whole "yeah, but like, footballers are all practically gay look at the way they dive, it's not a civilised man's sport like rugby"

That's rugby where players punch shit out of each other on the pitch, or where you get things like players biting into vials of fake blood.

Then there's other annoyances - the Barbour jacketed pissed up twats who watch it, the piss-drinking pissed up twats who play it, the fact that it basically seems to consist of kick and rush these days (get enough of that watching Villa).

[Clark W Griswold]

What about darts?

[joe_c]

Rugby is basically 15 coppers/doctors/lawyers/ex miners playing British Bulldog against another 15 coppers/doctors/lawyers/ex miners.

You could argue from now until the end of time what was the greatest goal ever whereas in Rugby, only one picturesque try has ever been scored and that was in a glorified friendly so shouldn't even count.

All that rugby puts hairs on your chest....

Its just Rounders 

[Dave]

I'm still struggling to get to grips with the fact that the quality of a sport should be judged by how loudly or otherwise the players sing the national anthem.

[TheMalandro]

Football then chasing cheese down a hill for me.

There is something wrong with a man who doesn’t like cricket.

The failure to appreciate the complete physical, mental and technical brilliance of the sport indicates a deep wrongness with that individual. It’s an oozing and seeping wrong that drips to and eventually swarms the soul with its vile corruption.

I have no scientific evidence to support this, but people who don’t like cricket (or love it) are the sort of people who put small kittens in microwaves for their warped pleasure. That’s 100% scientific fact.

Union is a great sport to. There is nothing wrong with walking round like a Brummie Steve McQueen in your waxed Barbour jacket either. The quilted Barbour are for Scousers and other assorted oiks, with no sense of style, granted.

I don't understand the reasoning behind that either. Spain are quite good at football and none of their players have to sing an anthem.

Ads, I'm fairly certain you are correct. They also sit in the 'reserved for disabled or elderly people' seats on public transport and put their bags on the seats of packed trains.

[cdbearsfan]

And half of them don't even regard themselves as Spanish!
