Calcutta Cup day. (Or are we all now meant to call it the Kolkata Kop?) Big day in the Ardiles household. No idea whether Johnson is going to revert to type and after playing a more open game and losing to Ireland. Frankly, I don't care today. It's all about a win. Fingers crossed.
My flatmate is Scottish. If we win I am going to celebrate by sellotaping a wooden spoon to his door. If we lose, I shall sulk! |

Vi er best i verden! Vi er best i verden! Vi har slått England 2-1 i fotball!! Det er aldeles utrolig! Vi har slått England! England, kjempers fødeland. Lord Nelson, Lord Beaverbrook, Sir Winston Churchill, Sir Anthony Eden, Clement Attlee, Henry Cooper, Lady Diana--vi har slått dem alle sammen. Vi har slått dem alle sammen. Maggie Thatcher can you hear me?
Your boys took a hell of a beating!"

It was a bit of a dull game of rugby, only came to life in the last 20 minutes. Shame the drop-goal attempt fell short - losing to Scotland this year is a poor result. |

We didn't lose though. Drawing with Scotland is still a poor result. Also, Rugby is shit. |

I don't understand how people get excited about rugby. It's not like football where you get the passing, movement and build up, it's stop-start.

Ralphy - that's just hilarious. No passing, movement or build up?! Good grief.

I'm happy to admit that I don't really possess much technical knowledge of the game but I enjoy the 6 Nations. Couldn't care less about club rugby, but I enjoy supporting England at anything. I can't remember the last time I've been so uninspired by it though. Maybe I'm losing interest, or maybe it's because England don't really look like producing anything of note, either through the forwards or when they open it up. And when teams just boot it backwards & forwards to each other I start to lose the will to live, they're basically saying that they're scared to actually attempt something? Why be on the pitch then?!
Brian Moore annoys me because he's got a chip on his shoulder about "soccer", & has a dig during every game in which he commentates.
