Twickenham Ruled Out

Does anyone find the RFU incredibly arrogant? They use multiple football stadiums during their season, then have the cheek to say there is no chance any football will be staged there.

They did this when Chelsea were looking for a temporary home and they've done it again with Spurs looking for a stadium for one game.

Can't stand rugby, and this just reinforces my hatred.

All sports are pretty elitist. I mean only like a month ago you HAD to wear jackets in the Pavillion at lords. Until recently women weren't allowed to go into golf club houses etc.

Football is one of the few genuinely progressive sports out there.

Definitely less of an elitist attitude with rugby in Wales. Very much a working class sport. Might explain why football and rugby teams have been more willing to share stadia

Darts is elitist. You’d have to be an elite m@ng to want to go and watch it.

Paying to watch two fat, drunk blokes throwing sticks at a board? And being surrounded by pi ssed up idiots? No thanks.

On the Guardian Football Weekly podcast one of the guests called the RFU "precious" for not wanting football played at Twickenham. Good man.

Some are fat.

None are drunk.

They don't throw sticks

As for the pi ssed up idiots in the crowd. Try attending a Rugby Union game in the UK. Drinking heavily is compulsory to attend.
