Tennis commentary on the radio is almost as ridiculous as tennis on the TV.

Having attended both Rugby and Football at non-league/amateur level, I can safely say that the difference in crowd behaviour is rather stark.The rugby crowd treated the match as a social occasion first and a sporting occasion second, the opposite really to football. At the final whistle in the Rugby hardly anyone left, preferring to carry on yacking and drinking, as they had done throughout the game. Compare that to the rush to leave a football match even prior to it's conclusion.I struggle to find any great excitement or interest in Rugby, I've tried and failed and the social make-up of the majority of those involved doesn't help someone from the left side of Politics. I must say I'm dreading the World Cup.My dislike was also cultivated by the boorish fuckers crashing into the pub on a Saturday night after the game with their thick necks, red faces and stupid club blazers, barging us out of the way to make clumsy attempts to chat up the Women.
I caught a train from Euston with a load of rugger buggers a few years ago. I can honestly say I have never in my life smelt so many pungent farts in my life. The stench was absolutely appalling.Serves em right for getting on a train with me after I've had a skinful.
