Been spitting feathers all weekend (Sad I know)
But I and my closest mates are all general sports fans. And so it was that on returning to the car park after Saturday's game, we looked forward to the England v Wales commentary filling the inevitable queuing time to get out of Dodge (Stoke).
On goes the radio... match already 10-15 minutes in. 20 minutes later, the commentators finally mention what the score is! A few dropped hints of a couple of tries and not sure how many converted or missed penalties. Nope not a scoobie about the actual score.
We reasoned that this was Rugby snobbery where the result doesn't really matter and/or the commentators didn't like the fact that they had been relegated to radio. Never happens on football radio commentary.
I could go on but...Rant Over...
