I've enjoyed this Rugby World cup more than any football world cup I've ever watched, it's been outstanding.
As for Nigel Owens, one of the best referees in the game and his quips with the players are f*cking great. Shame some of the football ref's weren't more like him. People want f*ucking robots these days, reading from some monologue script, same with managers, more managers like Holloway the game needs. |
Not at all. I like the guy, think there should be more banter between refs and players in any sport. He obviously gets a lot of respect for it. What I object to is him continually belittling football when he does it. If he wants to embarass a rugby player for diving or play acting, he doesn't need to take the easy target. Comes across as bitter and childish when he is actually a funny guy | | | |

He comes across the same as those on here who choose to have a pop at the Welsh team and/or rugby at every opportunity |  |

Absolutely. The only difference is that he does it on TV. | | | |

Most of us living in England will have watched it somewhat reticently sdo as not to offend chums.
I had my hands down my pants near the hand .
Its all about English media arrogance and the cocksucking comments of "greats" like the woodward, wilko,Dallaghlio and Ben Kay axis and quite how inverdale didn't have a coronary in the studio was a surprise.
They were simply found out by a team , resilient ,proud and brave who were no doubt extra motivated seeing the press cuttings.
Clever clever management too from OZ WHO KEPT SCHTUM ALL WEEK |
I haven't been remotely reticent.
i have been making as much of a gloating fuss about it as humanly possible.
My English family and friends would have done exactly the same the other way round. That's the whole point of it all.
If you can't tell them at the top of your voice where to stick their chariot after this last week then the momet is wasted. | | | |

Which is apparently ok unless you're at a football match in which case it's embarrassing and small minded or something. |  |

I watched it with my missus so I wasnt going to spoil a potentially good night.
You re not interested in the game Andrew so...
It's better to be subtle with schadenfreude and let the glow stay within.
You know what I mean Andrew . | |

I'm a big fan of schadenfreude. It appeals to the b*stard in me. And I've watched quite a bit of eggby this past few days I'll have you know. | |

I find being subtle on such occasions greatly spoils the fun.
I shall have fun for the next couple of weeks (at least) about it all, as they would be perfectly entitled to the other way round.
It's hilarious and anyone that genuinely takes offence has a screw loose. | | | |

Funny how it wasn't seen as being embarrassing and small minded at Southampton last week when they were singing about their beloved Chariots wasn't it??
Some people need to get over their inferiority complex and stop apologising.
To clarify - I don't mean you as I'm sure you know! | | | |

Do you seriously think they won't be giving it plenty when they next get the chance. They do it before they play any games never mind if they should win. One year some technology c*nt, probably the IT Director changed my password to 34-6 after we'd lost by that score.
Give it plenty, and take it in good humour when it inevitably comes back the other way. It's only sport. |  |

I actually find it best not to mention stuff like this to English colleagues. Makes them spend all morning on tenterhooks waiting for it and just like an injection, the anticipation is the worst bit. | | | |

One actually asked for a meeting with me last week just to tell me how gutted he was and how we deserved it. I was so taken aback I explained that England were surely still favourites to go through. I should really have got his shoelaces and tie. | |

No one has asked for a meeting with me for this week - I think they know what's coming !!
I've had so much stick over the years, I'm enjoying my moment! | | | |

Possibly because in the past, something as ' small' as that had led to mass violence. Football is improving infinitely, but there's always this worry that a little spark could reverse everything. |  |

I did text to a good friend of mine from Bath immediately after the match that I hoped that England would beat Uruguay. That's just plain good manners. |  |

I congratulated a previously rather confident England fan on achieving their goal of automatically qualifying for the next World Cup. It was the least I could do. |  |
