Title: I agree Mr Vickery Post by: janaage on Monday, November 27, 2006, 09:14:49 Bunch of glory hunting wankers!!!
http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/rugby_union/english/6185414.stm To think 4 years ago the whole country were rugby experts, now the twickers lot are making themselves look as bad as the players!! Title: I agree Mr Vickery Post by: el duque on Monday, November 27, 2006, 10:57:38 He is indeed correct. It's not the best time to be making this point though, as the story will be drowned amongst all the articles about Andy Robinson stubbornly refusing to fall on his sword... again.
Since the World Cup, England tickets have doubled in price, due to an influx of johnny-come-latelys who just don't get it. You can now almost guarantee to be sat next to some gang of prats at Twickenham who will no doubt be wearing replica shirts (presumably they don't realise that the wearing of a barbour is de rigueur for a day out at HQ). They invariably spend the whole game talking rubbish, pondering questions such as "Why isn't Jonny playing" and "Why don't we win any more like we used to (when we didn't used to be interested)?" I used to go to just about every game but these clowns are ruining a perfectly good day out, and I haven't been since Samoa last year. Probably the same sort of people who spend their summers going to the cricket wearing 'barmy army' t-shirts... Title: I agree Mr Vickery Post by: el duque on Monday, November 27, 2006, 11:14:00 It's not just at Twickenham though... There was sustained booing during Stirling Mortlock's kicking routine at Murrayfield this weekend. Poor form.
Title: I agree Mr Vickery Post by: Piemonte on Monday, November 27, 2006, 11:15:11 Glory hunters or not 8 defeats in 9 games for one of the supposed world powers of Rugby should equal sacking.

There was sustained booing during Stirling Mortlock's kicking routine at Murrayfield this weekend. Poor form. Agree with that, a few years ago, when Rugby fans used to go to rugby games, stadiums were silent during penalty kicks. Now rugby has attracted the masses the crowd's behaviour has worsened. Shame. Boo-ing is crap. Title: I agree Mr Vickery Post by: Piemonte on Monday, November 27, 2006, 11:27:12 BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOoo

Agreed, ive never liked Rugby even after the WC win but the fans have every right to boo the shambles that is the English Rugby team. Fair weather or not they still fork out a fortune to watch rubbish.

Title: I agree Mr Vickery Post by: janaage on Monday, November 27, 2006, 15:01:19 I thought you were Irish?? What RWC bandwagon did you hop on?
Title: I agree Mr Vickery Post by: Piemonte on Monday, November 27, 2006, 15:15:10 Sonic will jump on any old bandwagon.
He'll be a fench water polo fan born in marsellie next week :D Title: I agree Mr Vickery Post by: janaage on Monday, November 27, 2006, 15:28:50 Reminds me of my mate "Glory Steve". Never even mentioned Rugby pre 2003. Then in the summer of 05 he became the no.1 cricket fan in England. Whilst back around 2001 he was following the England footie team as much as he could (although he no longer goes to any matches rugby/football/cricket).
I think he's currently looking for Australian ancestry, he'll have a job as he's from Bromham.

Title: I agree Mr Vickery Post by: el duque on Monday, November 27, 2006, 15:48:50 Quote from: "janaage" I thought you were Irish?? What RWC bandwagon did you hop on? Presumably the 2007 one. They are looking by far the best NH team at the moment. If they can do the Grand Slam this time, they'll be in very good shape for the WC.

What RWC bandwagon did you hop on? english/irish :-- Title: I agree Mr Vickery Post by: Simon Pieman on Monday, November 27, 2006, 18:10:40 I think his comments are patronising and pathetic. England fans have supported the team through a period where their Rugby has gone back so far, I think some of the players would be fascinated to learn the wheel has already been invented.
Twickenham was getting filled and England were getting good support long before the WC. I think this renders Vickery's point invalid. |
