Football v Rugby click here

Have a pause at 33 seconds, just as the guy goes to get the ball of Josh Lewsey – is that a Southend shirt I spy in the background?
 
good spot there. took me two attempts to notice it. nice1.

just to add, its football that englands real passion no way is it rugby.
 
England's rugby supporters are a much better bunch than their footballing counterparts. Much more supportive, a lot less troublesome despite the copious amounts of alcohol, and much more willing to accept victory and defeat as twin imposters.

The vast, vast majority also generally play the game on Saturday afternoons, too, so England is the only chance they have of watching rugby in the flesh and they make the most of it. They genuinely love watching their team rather than the round ball followers, a lot of whom do it just to boost their own ego.

Given the choice of England retaining the Webb Ellis or qualifying for the Euros I'd go for the former every time because they and their supporters are worthy of it.

See you in Paris tonight.
