I think you'll find they're all English! Up here the big news is that Celtic lost 3-0 to Rangers, and there's been plenty of tears (and cheers from the bluenoses!) over that...

You're quite right Face, I forgot the golden rule of the UK media.......when they're English, then they're English, but when they're Scottish, Welsh, or N Irish then they're British.

Silly me.

I did think that England did ok in the rugby though - they managed to hold back SA most of the time, which is no mean feat.

Indeed - If the try that wasn't had counted then it may have been a different game.

It still looked good to me.

In the end though I think the better team (just) won.

I am with you on that one maycm! Still think the try should have stood!!

Things further slipped into the mire as Liverpool lost their Euro game this week, but on the bright side, who'd want to be a Spurs supporter right now? *ahem*
