Game for suppressed homos more than gentlemen, frankly

Re: Rugby..a game played by gentlemen
I agree with Nurse and Sniper.

Homo's sport of the highest order & has a skill level I'd equate to getting out of bed in the morning.

should be banned

Re: Rugby..a game played by gentlemen
Not a fan either but what I dislike most about it is that rugbyists seem to take a moral high ground over football and look down on it whilst ignoring that probably as many cunts watch and play rugby as do football. A different class of cunt.

To be fair Frankie, I'd imagine it does take quite a bit of skill and effort to drag your fat carcass out of bed int he morning.

LomARSE...

Rugby is a sport played by people who don't have the skill or grace to play football.

FC... remember watching it live... two versions ... the SKY version with Barnes saying Disgrace... he's got to go... and the Oz version saying .... a disgrace... that he got a red card... ha ha ha... proper went to town...

Plenty of RU players could have made a decent effort at playing Pro football... I'd say nigh on zero pro footballers could ever have played pro Rugby... and that gents... is the truth

Re: Rugby..a game played by gentlemen
Mike Teague is an absolute legend in Gloucester, and a great bloke to boot from a time when the game was definitely different.

I was brought up on it at school, it's a working class sport in Gloucester and there are more junior clubs per head than anywhere else in the country.

those in the know will tell you that the real hard man at Gloucester at the time wasn't Teaguey, but his back row partner, John Gadd. If something needed sorting, it would be Gaddy that done the deed, and properly too...

Spot on Staffs.

All my in-laws are in to Rugby and not remotely interested in Football. Some of them have even played Rugby Union at an amateur level. They look at me and my enthusiasm for West Ham and for Football with a sense of bafflement and ignorance.

They can be quite snobbish about it and perceive Rugby as superior to Football and therefore, by extension, implicitly see themselves as being superior to me. My father in law even makes a point of calling Football "soccer" as if Football as a term shouldn't be allowed to use by Football fans because the term originated historically from "Rugby Football" - whereas soccer originates from the term Association Football and is therefore what we should be calling it. He may be factually correct but that he feels the need to point it out demonstrates his sense of superiority. And, more than anything else, it's fucking annoying.

But, aside from all this, the more fundamentally important point is that as a sport Rugby is so fucking unspeakably boring. I just don't see the appeal. It just can't generate the same levels of enthusiasm, excitement and loyalty that the beautiful game commands.

I know which side of the fence I'd rather be on.

Rugby: a game played and watched by elitist, ignorant, snobbish cunts with an inferiority complex (in my experience).

"elitist, ignorant, snobbish cunts with an inferiority complex"

That could be also aimed at modern Tottenham and Arsenal fans.
