The reason you can't escape from football is because it is POPULAR!!! If Egg Chasing (Rugby) was as good a game then that would get the coverage, but it isn't so it doesn't!!!

Football is the world's game, wherever you go people play football and know all the teams and players. 22 years going round the world in the RN shows you how popular it is. Everywhere you go the ship will play a football match against a local team, occasionally you will get a Rugby match if there is an ex-pats team there, assuming there are enough people on the ship interested enough to scrape 15 players together.

If you don't like football then don't watch it, I can't stand Rugby so guess what, I don't watch it! You also can't read the papers for all the latest soaps gossip, I don't watch them so I don't read it.

Whatever your feeling is about football though you cannot deny it is the number one sport in the world so it is only natural that it receives the greatest coverage.

Just for info I do not support a glamour team from the premiership either, I'm a life long Donny Rovers fan!!!

ROVERS 'TIL I DIE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
