Forum: Football & Other Sports Copied from the site homepage.Note the ampersand and the two words which follow it. Aww, bless him, the cuddly little warthog. :claping hands:

Thank you for those kind words, sicko. The title of this forum is Football and Other Sports. Rugby is another sport. The title of this thread is Rugby World Cup, so why don't you go forth and multiply, old prune?

Excellent advice. Aww bless him, the cuddly little chipmunk.:)

Was that criticism? I thought it was how Grumble addressed everybody.

Because this particular football club plays at the same stadium where my club plays, and because this site has a forum designated for my club, and also has a thread about the Rugby World Cup. I rarely post, yet the site has sent me several plaintive messages, inviting me to come back. Perhaps...

I came to that conclusion a long time ago. He seems permanently angry. Best to follow the advice I was once given: never argue with idiots. They end up dragging you down to their level. So I'll leave him happily playing with himself in the sun. Of course I have no history of ccfc posts. I do...

Dear Grumble, If nobody here gives a sh1t about the Rugby World Cup, why is this thread now on its 8th page? Plenty of people seemed very happy to engage in a civilised, good-humoured discussion, and then you crawled out of your hole. I did not attend an independent school and why do you...

"When the rugby lot won it most people shrugged their shoulders and said "that's nice" You must have missed the million or so people who lined the streets of central London for the open-top bus parade. You must also have missed the thousands who turned up at Heathrow, in the small hours of a...

I watched him many times. It wasn't a one-off. He spent hour after hour on the training pitch, practising with both feet. I remember meeting a former pro footballer (1st Division), shortly after England had flopped in some championship, because (according to all the pundits) they didn't have a...

One further thought. The question was asked "What could football learn from rugby?" In 2003, England won the Rugby World Cup when Jonny Wilkinson dropped a goal with his weaker foot. How many England footballers can make effective use of their 'weaker' foot? How about getting all young...

"I switched off after the first line, sorry old bean" The first line was a quote from one of yours. Does the man with the hairstyle name earn £250K per annum? Several Premiership clubs have crowds which match football's championship, and the new TV deal is very lucrative. The French TV deal...

Correction - Frankie Sheahan's ban was cut, from two years to three months. That was back in 2003.

"You just cannot compare the two in my opinion, Football players have no loyalty but thats because they have more options to better their careers financially. Rugby doesnt have this issue apart from in France, oh and look at English players chasing the coin there now also. " Very few English...

Lots of people looked ridiculous when they were running the London Marathon. What's far more important is that they raised huge sums for charity. If they want to wear silly costumes/whatever, it's up to them. The wigs are not being handed out. People are being asked to make charitable...

I'll take that as a yes. Hope you never need the help that charity provides.

It's going to involve a lot of money being raised for the Brain Tumour Charity. Do you disapprove?

Exeter's next game is away to Saracens. A bonus point defeat would be a good result there, and would take them to 60. Final game at home to Sale. Bonus point win possible, taking them to 65, with 13 wins Wasps are at home to Leicester, then away to London Irish. Two wins without bonus points...

The stadium naming rights are up for renewal this year. The original 10-year deal was worth £10 million. The new deal should be for much more, comfortably enabling the early loan repayment.

Check the front page. This is a sub-forum, headed "Wasps". That would lead most people with the barest minimum brain capacity to conclude that it is a suitable place to post about Wasps. You obviously disagree. Tough. Coventry City's media department is probably bigger than ours, but the best...

You sad, cynical person. By that token, every person speaking positively about Wasps is part of their (mythical) PR machine. Pity your football club can't match it. This is a forum about Wasps. Do you think it should only have negative postings? Not much point in having a forum if that's the...
