The worst sport to watch?

Two Melbourne clubs playing AFL on a Sunday Afternoon
A marathon on foot or horse

Chess is actually really interesting professionally, I'd take that over horseracing or golf anyday
Most chess players would find studying chess interesting (i.e. following the games of grandmasters) and I guess this isn't too different from watching a game being played live. Usually a lot of players on fics watch the grandmaster games. However when I visit the chess
server its usually to play chess and not watch someone else playing, so for me playing chess is fine but I would probably be bored watching a game live (considering how long each player takes to move).

no but it better then Coventry:)
Yes well done for pointing that out.

Although I will mention that not so long ago Coventry made it to the FA Youth Cup Final (lost to West Ham I believe) and we do actually have a fair few trainees coming through.

By far the worst sport to watch is horse riding in any shape or form, but especially when they pop in some bland piece of music and make the poor beastie go sideways and all.

The really bad category comprises field hockey, golf, and Formula 1 racing after turn 1 on lap 1.

Honorable mention goes to ice skating.

Yes it is. An average horse race is totally uninteresting, while an average soccer match has at least five moments which are mildly interesting.

Five is a stretch. The only time a soccer game is interesting is when the riots start.

Horse racing has gettin the horses into the barrier, then the start, then the end.
