Other Teams in Other Sports...

[Tomm NCCC]

So who are your teams, just Nationally, in other Sports.

Football/Soccer -
Rugby Union
Rugby League
Ice Hockey
And any others you want to add...

 

[Barney Rubble]

Football (not Soccer ): Portsmouth

Couldn't really care less about many other sports really - I support England or Great Britain if there's anything big happening, like the Rugby World Cup or something, but I follow increasingly less sport these days. I've become so bored of watching the likes of Tim Henman lose I just can't stand it any more.

 

[Jungle Jumbo]

Football: Everton/Chester City - both still in FA Cup

Don't really follow anything else, but have a strange obsession with Winter Biathlon on Eurosport ATM, don't ask why, I don't know.

Corrected your typo.

Footie - United, Chelmsford City (got an FM2006 game with them, edited them into Conference South, got up to League 2 so far)
Sod Rugby
Sod Ice Hockey
Golf - Woods (because I liked his reaction in the 99 Ryder Cup, he was about the only American who just stood there and said "we haven't actually won yet")
Cricket - Essex
Have to say that the recently completed Darts World Championship (the Sky version, not the BBC) was the first time I've given Darts a fair go, and I quite enjoyed it, might follow it a bit more (I still think they're paid a ridiculous amount just for being fat and throwing a few Darts around, but I enjoyed it), my early favourite was Peter Manley for having the guts to do his awful Amarillo entrance.

Complaining about rates of pay is a waste of time. They're paid that money because tickets, sponsors and TV rights fetch that. Therefore that is their value. End of.

Other teams? Exeter City FC. End of.

 

[The Baconator]

Villa for football, don't really follow any other team sports closely enough to have a preference.

 

[open365]

Liverpool football club.

Leicester tigers rugby club.

and Lancashire cricket club.

 

[Blaze]

Football - Arsenal

Domestic Cricket - Wellington

Domestic Rugby - Wellington and the Hurricanes

NRL Rugby League - NZ Warriors

Super League Rugby League - Wigan

American Football - The Dolphins

NBA - Charlotte Hornets

NHL - Colorado

That's about all I can think of atm.. I have to follow a team to get into any sport.

 

[BoyBrumby]

Association Football: Arsenal, with soft spot for Cambridge United as my "pat on the head" little team.

Rugby Union: Northampton Saints & The ACT Brumbies in the Super 14.

Rugby League: Hull (although I used to follow Leeds before I went to uni in Hull) & St George/Illawarra Dragons in the NRL

Speedway: Mildenhall Fen Tigers

I can see that, but still, getting £400,000 (think that's what the winner got) is ridiculous, whether it's their value or not.

You contradict yourself.

£100,000 actually, much higher than it's ever been before, took The Power's career earnings over £1m, mind you he has won the world title 13 times, the man is a machine.


And in answer to the question - Oldham

 

[Anna]

Rugby Union - Bath
Cricket - Somerset
Football - Not fussed although Yeovil are my closest team & I'll always have a soft spot for Norwich City (thanks to my mum lol)

Really?! Could have sworn the Sky Geordie commentator said it was more than that - fair enough.
