We are tipped to do well in the World Cup, our cricketers win the ashes and are up there in the rankings, out rugby team are world champions, Ive just watched the GB union side spank New Zealand. English sport is in the acendancy but, why? Is it the government, or is it the lottery money? And to top it all we are hosting the Olympics.

Great innit!!
 
We're becoming ever more shit at athletics, if that puts any kind of downer on it.

Rugby is for the most part a tedious sport.

I remember after the team won the world cup, all the news reports on kids taking up rugby and everyone saying that rugby was the new football and would become the national sport. Did it feck, why do you guys always do this?

I didn't. I'd like rugby to go bankrupt.

I mean the English public in general, and mainly the media. They always go over the top with things and then when it is no longer fashionable they just drop it.
