Thanks for sharing the clip - just fantastic to see so many Londoners enjoying our great game
Very much looking forward to seeing Londoners playing and enjoying League.
League is the perfect sport and the time for it's growth is ripe.
Premier League Football has become all about the richest team with the most money winning every year and it's boring. Also there is far too much cheating and play acting in football. As such a lot of people are sick to death with overpaid prima donnas owning Ferraris and living in mansions poncing around and getting paid like Kings.
Union is far too technical and overly complicated. How often does the ball go into the breakdown and the referee then makes some decision, points in a direction and a free kick results and no one's any the wiser as to why he pointed East instead of West. After all at the last breakdown the exact same thing happened and he pointed the other way. Then the ball is kicked to someone sitting in the stands for the 800th time in 5 minutes and then a load of fat f**ks have a cuddle for half an hour.
League is hard - it's players are tough, yet fair. There's very little blatant cheating, the rules are simple to understand and the play goes from end to end in short periods of time (unless you're watching Easts). The players get paid ok, but not massive amounts and the average bloke can relate to them.
The only mystery in this World is why doesn't the media give it more exposure? If they did the game would grow very quickly outside of its traditional base in the North.
