Any rugby fans here ?
My son and his mate have got tickets and are going to watch the rugby Super League final at Old Trafford later today.

I don't really follow it but know quite a few disillusioned football fans who now do. I hope your son has a great time and enjoys the game. One thing is for sure Linda, he will see real men and not overpaid prima donnas throwing themselves on the floor. When a rugby player stays down you KNOW they are hurt. I've been watching the Union World Cup over the last month - really pleased for Wales - I hope they go on to win it but can't see it. It is a big ask to beat France and then SA/AUS or NZ.

I dip in and out of it, got very disillusioned by the way Widnes were initially excluded, then after they did gain promotion became the first team who finished 2nd bottom to be relegated so Catalans could come in. Glad Widnes are back for 2012 obviously, but would prefer them to get their on performances on the pitch. Something inherently wrong with a system where the team finishing 8th of 14 can still win the title, thats Sky for you. They'll be doing it to football next.
