    Who do you follow?

    I thought everyone in England was a Manchester United supporter.


    Any motorsport fans? F1 and Moto GP for me.

    Union most definitely. Although league is ok, I prefer the complexities of union, even if it can be dour a lot of the time at the moment.

    I still play, so that would be my No 1 team.

    After that, it's got to be Ireland, then Ulster. Although I'll watch any game that's on, especially if it is in HD. I find HD works a lot better in rugby than football, probably because the camera is zoomed in and doesn't have to cover as much of the pitch as quickly.

    The recent Ireland win over the dirty boks was pretty intense and enjoyable.

    That Ireland win against SA was immense. Remember England SA 55 - 5 probably in 2002? Massive.

    Ireland are the Northern hemisphere team of the moment, good on them, and, to be honest, about time too!!

    6 Nations is going to be very interesting - can't wait.

    There's drama in Rugby Union that just isn't matched in any other sport (imho). It's a very subjective view though.

    Does this count?

    Planning has started for a British tiddlywinks invasion of the US in September 2010. The last invasion was in 1985.

    Steady on, you lot!

    Murdering animals is sport. The rest is games.

    Yup, I like F1.

    I also like watching yacht racing. This is quite unusual as for most people it's very boring.

    The only time I think I've been to an England game was at Murrayfield when they got beat in the rain and wind about 7 or 8 years ago

    I don't really go to the games any more as it's just too expensive. There isn't a problem getting seats at Murrayfield these days either, but 60 odd quid for a seat is extortionate.

    I really appreciate many of the games these days even though people are saying the game is too dull - there's an awful lot going on in the games to appreciate still I find, from the physical aspects to the way that different teams approach different games.
