Chiefs vs Bristol: Championship Playoff Final

[Antony Moxey]

I wouldn't be averse too to seeing some spirit of co-operation between the two clubs, chiefly thinking of the fixture lists, and whether it would be possible to arrange for the two clubs not to be playing "big" matches at home together, f'example.

I believe they have tried, but have been told no by the fixture compilers.

Fair enough - if you don't ask you don't get. Worst that can happen is they say "no", as it seems they have done.

"Can't we all just get along?"

But enough about Cameron's phone call to Clegg.....back to topic

...as far as rugger is concerned <yawn> - the only train trips I intend to take on alternative Saturdays will be (hopefully [y] ) a RaWZtour to the varied metropoli, and CERTAINLY not a cheap-day return to Digby (change here for Shandy Park)

My reasoning:

rugby is a sport for all those not good enough to play football...FACT
rugby is a game of run and catch...chase me chase me...FACT
the ball has been squashed to make it easier to catch
There are no bloody nets
You get the squashed object and then seek to kick it off the pitch...bizarre
the fans have beards, even the women have beards or are indeed "beards"

I love it when I hear a father (who has never played sport any any level) push his son into rugby because he has a better chance of playing because he isn't good enough to play football for his school team. You can listen to them with no real grasp of the game or indeed any sport in general proclaiming how good rugger is.

If you aren't good enough to play football, you play rugby. Thankfully I had natural sporting ability so played football.

Come on Bristol. I predict a score of 15 - 145 Bristol. F*cking boring

Wind up achieved

I hope the Chiefs win their play-off final, as it would be good for Exeter as a whole.

Like someone has already said though... They will bottle it. Always do.

Managed to combine going to City & Chiefs without a problem so far over the last few years. If both are at home I generally goto the football as its a 2 minute walk away but love the rugby atmosphere and there is plenty to admire at sandy park both on and off the pitch.

So why don't you want Bristol to lose - they play rugby too, just like the Chiefs. Surely their both the same, if what you describe above is true, so why do you favour one over the other, and why is the one you do favour not your hometown team?

Live on Sky Sports 4 if Rotherham Aldershot doesn't float your boat.

Red - you missed the most significant one.

rugby is ofen the only opportunity for grown (and ofter overgrown) men to spend the afternoon having a nice cuddle without being accused of being gayers!
