Uncomfortable admission...

I might wear my yellow jersey in praise of Wiggins winning Le Tour later today. I bought it years ago but have not had reason to wear it, until now.

As the French match us in patriotic chauvanism, are there hordes of Jean-Philippes moaning that their only jersey this year was won by a Alsatian with an 'Alsatian' surname?

It's nothing to do with age son. I've always found football a little too...plebian for my liking. It has it's place for sure. Usually as a means for the mob to vicariously satisfy their tribal insticts, a bit like gladitorial games, but football really has no place on such a refined forum as CC. Thanks again.

Tribal instincts, gladiatorial games? Which football game is this of which you speak? There's more injury potential in ballet than soccer. More testosterone and collision in badminton. (wimins badminton)

Badminton? Shuttlecocks!

Rover?

I don't remember seeing him

When was this then.

First 5 minutes after we invented it ?

Just imagine the kind of mass emotional meltdown that might have befallen this nation had Andy Murray won the Wimbledon Final.

Presumably that would be seeing Andy smile then ?
