Which one are you most looking forward to??

???
 






An easy one, this one.

Premier League - boring
Champions League - boring until the knockout phases
Ryder Cup - shit so-called sport
Ashes - a great sport, a proper contest, lots of needle - what more could you want?
British Lions - quite interesting
 


Only the two football one's interest me.


I'm pretty much the opposite. Having been on a Lions tour I'll be following that with interest. I always enjoy the Ryder Cup as I love watching the yanks get spanked. Most of all though there is something very special about an Ashes series. I just hope we're up to it this time round.

The primadonna league and the Champions (plus runners up, 3rd and 4th if you're from a big country) League don't really do as much for me as most of the time I couldn't give a monkeys who wins.

Premier League is good to watch when nothing else is on when your chilling, but no real interest in it

Champions League is boring in the group stages, no real interest, I dont think its any better than the Premiership

Ryder Cup was good, but now its a bit too one sided and less of a specatcle

The Ashes - Love it, but it seems to revolve around us playing out our skins and Australia having a bad day at the office, but has loads of drama

British Lions - shows how good team sport can be when its not packed with over paid primadonnas, and you take out crowd segregation and let them all drink

Its not 2000, its not the British Lions any more.

Of those, probably the later stages of the CL and the Lions - don't give a shite about the Premiership, the Ashes and I'll probably skim-watch the Ryder Cup.

Ashes in theory, but can you honestly see our bunch of pie chuckers realistically bowling out the Aussies twice in a match?

Don't give a cr@p about the two footbal options.
Ryder Cup, will probably watch when on but not fussed.
Ashes, yeah, will have a decent amount of interest.
Have voted for the Lions tour though, as they are playing the World Champions. I think the tours are over extended now though, too many meaningless games that detract from the main tests. Would love to get out there for it, and may yet do.

Top class rugby union is a FAR better spectacle than football, golf or cricket imo.

Be interesting to see how many England players will make the 1st team

Great poll Crod.
Most looking forward to the Ashes but I expect the Lions to be the greatest and closest contest of the lot. Aiming to go out for one of the tests as have never been on a Lions tour and would love it.
Prem and Champs league whatever. Golf Sticks always a good format and great to watch but no "best player ever" which makes it lose a bit of appeal.
