[QUOTE="SimonG, post: 625413, member: 71048"] None...perhaps it's the wrong tone I'm putting across. I'm merely outlining the differences in behaviour of the three sports. One being rooted in the working class is more tribal, the other two being middle class are more refined. I should add that football could do with a touch of middle class refinement, post match interviews.."at the end of the day"..."game of two halfs"..provide little or no analysis in comparison to Rugby players. Football spread in a huge variety of ways...read up about the origin of AC Milan, Barcelona, Juventus...different story to each one. Oh I know it's from an England persective...I can only really speak of what I've seen. "Euro snobs" who riot?....sounds like a contradiction there. Cricket and Rugby are very English (thus European) so I guess the Aussie rugby folks are snobs too? You've lost me mate [/QUOTE]
