Having just sung the praises of club rugby against the depravity of football in general, I thought I'd see if anyone actually watches the club game at the moment.
I'm a relatively new convert to club rugby and am still in a position of little to no knowledge compared to football, but as a spectator sport I think I now enjoy going to the rugby more than football.
I adopted Harlequins as my team (as they were the most local team at the time) back in 2008, just in time to see them disgrace the game with 'bloodgate' (another good example of rugby dealing with problems a lot better than football does), and have been to three or four games a season for the last few years, culminating in the amazing win over Leicester last year.
This season seems the most open for a while with everyone beating everyone, and I think Quins will struggle to recapture the title even though they are currently top.
So any other fans? Any at all? No? Pah!
