What would you choose ?

I’ve enjoyed this test match and enjoy my rugby but it’s a big football for me.

Cricket and football ? Read the ****ing thread....

It's the right answer though. Limited crossover in normal times and no need to watch Harold sticking his head up Doctor Tory-Bellend's anus*

















* I am, of course, talking about Union here, since watching Rugby League requires a lobotomy.

Football. I'm genuinely not bothered about the result in either of the other two ..... except Wales (rugby), and Australia (cricket). Football any game I can find a reason to want one team to win.

That’s spot on. If I have any reason to dislike a team I’ll watch them play to hopefully see them lose ... Is that the same things?

Can I have Cricket and Football instead of Rugby?

Well I'm having that anyway!

Cricket in the summer, football in the winter - preferred it when football didn't impose itself on the cricket season as it does now, but that was 50 or 60 years ago. Suppose I'd better get used to it sometime .......................................

If a team I support isn't playing I'd rather watch a game of rugby Union or cricket as a neutral than a game of football

Never been into Rugby. Even with England in the final I was meh. Crickets enjoyable, don’t know nearly enough about but something brilliantly English about. I’d rather it had remained stuffy and civil in that sense rather than get all louty like football - I like both types of atmosphere and crickets attempts to rebrand and commercialise have left it a bit of a circus IMO. No one needs staged air guitar impressionists between overs. And sponsors spoiling the lovely grass pitches. Nah, you can keep that side of things. Bloody silly.

Interesting thread.....
Rugby and cricket for me over football but without the rugby.

I love all three. So life is a permanent sports fest.

I refuse to choose.

I'm not a massive football fan - I'm an Albion fan rather someone who follows the game avidly. I didn't get into the game until I was 10

Rugby and cricket were my first loves and still my sports of choice. If I landed in a strange town and cricket, rugby and football were on, I'd watch them in that order.
