jakee 1,597 #26 December 10, 2007 Quote Yes, cricket fans were polite. Too polite. I managed to read a whole novel at a cricket match when I was in old Blighty. You must have been at Lords. Lords is like an old mans living room. Quote And rugby fans, well, compared to rugby players, just about anyone will be sedate. Sedate has never, ever been a word used to describe England rugby fans!Do you want to have an ideagasm? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It is always fun to have England's Barmy Army at cricket matches here in SA. They drink a lot, sing a lot, cheer a lot, but they never make trouble. The rules below (from their web site) sum them up nicely. QuoteHoggy's Rules Have Fun- good, clean and entertaining Be Passionate- about supporting cricket, win lose or draw Show Respect- for all players, officials, fans and ground's rules and regulations Give Consideration- to other people's views, beliefs and cultures Mind- your language! Understand- that breaching Hoggy's Rules isn't what England's Unofficial 12th man does, and can result in fewer tickets for all of us, less support for England and loss of your Barmy Army membership Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
