Oxfordfox83 Posted 4 September 2014 Share Posted 4 September 2014 It works both ways. Two work colleagues are huge rugby fans, one of them used to be on tigers books in his younger years. They both have a real hatred for City and love nothing more than seeing us fail. Slagging us off before a ball is kicked. "They'll lose this week" "Nugents Shiite" You work with Tuna and Lcfcsnow?

fox123 Posted 4 September 2014 Share Posted 4 September 2014 I don't follow rugby, though I want Tigers to do well. I don't follow cricket, but I want Leicestershire to do well. I don't follow boxing, but I want Rendal to do well. I don't overly follow music, but I want Kasabian to do well, though Mark Morrison can fvck off. All in all, I'm just talking shite, though want local teams/talent to succeed. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Weller in Tights Posted 4 September 2014 Share Posted 4 September 2014 I hate rugby. Rugby. A game played by young males that can't play football. FACT. As proved by the study in 2003 by Baines and Lloyd - Sheffield Hallam University. Rugby. A waste of a good football pitch. Rugby. 87% of people attending rugby matches said they would vote conservative. Survey by Opta. 2012 38% of people attending football matches said they would vote conservative. Survey by Sky 2011. Conclusion?? Rugby- played by posh twats who can't play football. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I saw someone I know who goes down the tigers in my local once. He was stood there with a man u scarf on and on it a tigers badge. I asked him why he supported tigers, his proud reply was 'because they're my hometown team'. So I then asked why the **** does he support united then.

We didn't have 1 posh twvt in our team,mainly thugs and at least 5 of us played football 1st team.Granted not as good a standard. We did have a posh Twvt,he supported Peterborough.

Julian Joachim Jr Shabadoo Posted 5 September 2014 Share Posted 5 September 2014 Ha ha. I saw someone I know who goes down the tigers in my local once. He was stood there with a man u scarf on and on it a tigers badge. I asked him why he supported tigers, his proud reply was 'because they're my hometown team'. So I then asked why the **** does he support united then. I've got a mate from Birmingham and he's a Villa fan. He's also a Tigers fan (not allowed) and he posts pictures of his baby (born in Leicester) in bloody Tigers and Villa babygrows.

I'd not thought about this until you said that .... I played football for 30 seasons and picked up more, and worse, injuries in 3 seasons of cricket!!!!

Saxondale Posted 5 September 2014 Share Posted 5 September 2014 With the exception of South Wales, rugby union is the sole preserve of uber-privileged public schoolboys. I actually used to go to the rugby a lot, around five or six seasons back. I enjoyed because I used to go with a mate and get wasted. Being trollied aside, my enduring memory is how painfully middle class it all is. A load of obese solicitors with bellies full of Guinness shouting "heave" is not my idea of fun. Most irritating of all is how 90% of rugby fans look down on football. It's actually a social class thing as much as anything. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most irritating of all is how 90% of rugby fans look down on football. It's actually a social class thing as much as anything. Old Rugby fans are the worst. Playing for a Rugby club is one of the best things in life for me. Trumps any time I've ever spent playing for a football team. To be honest I enjoy playing Rugby more than I do Football but enjoy watching Football more than I do Rugby. Rugby fans look down on football fans as much as football fans take the piss out of rugby fans for being posh twats. Both are as bad as each other. EDIT: Also the line in bold is a load of shit. The fans that go to watch it might and obviously it's the top sport in public schools but a massive majority of amateur Rugby clubs are working class. You think the overweight, 45 year old props trudging around a muddy pitch at 11am on a Saturday morning in January are over-privaledged schoolboys?

Haydos Posted 5 September 2014 Share Posted 5 September 2014 You might hate it, but its true. It doesn't even mean anything though, it's one of the worst insults I've heard. Why do you think there's so many footballers? It's because they're too shit to play Rugby. It just doesn't mean anything and it's not true, it's just idiots insulting a sport (who even insults a sport anyway?). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FrankieWorthoYaggedMyWife Posted 5 September 2014 Share Posted 5 September 2014 (edited) I was watching the British Super Bikes in my local and some old twat is going to me "that lad broke his leg 2 weeks ago and hes still riding, you wouldn't catch your nancy footballers doing that!" I Said they prob would play but it wouldn't be much of a spectacle watching a load of blokes on crutches wander about! Tw@t!
