Football is a gentleman's game played by thugs; rugby is a thugs game played by gentlemen.

Personally, you'll find me at Twickenham at every opportunity!

Gents, every one of them!

Rugby is a game invented by a cheat who was c&*p at football, how's that for an origin of sport. It's played by people too fat to play other sports and is an organised fight surrounding a ball of the WRONG shape.

Discuss - lol

I wouldn't say they're all too fat to play football, most of them appear to be a 'normal' (if there is such a thing) size. The player that came to mind would be O'Driscoll from the Leinster team in the RoI, met him personally a few years ago and he isn't fat. Could have done with a fair bit of mine I would have said!

All of which is a myth. The story of William Webb-Ellis didn't start until after he was dead. Besides, the game has been cleaned up a whole lot since those pics were taken.

And football is a game played by crybabies who fall over screaming when someone comes too close to them:

Also, that story about the invention of rugby is a complete myth :p

Rugby for me everytime, football is for girls & bling merchants. Although I do prefer Aussie rules, mainly because there doesnt seem to be any rules in it!

As for reporting the incident, leave it. If it gets known you have done that you may well land yourself in a lot of trouble from them. Besides the CCTV onboard will pick up the evidence on what they did if they actually did!

1) Do all the 170s used on this route actually have CCTV fitted? I am fairly confident that all the refurbished units will, but I am not so sure about the ones in original condition.
2) If the unit has CCTV, it is all very well the Police being able to see which person is doing what, but they do not neccesarily know who each person is, and in cases such as this it must be very difficult for the plod to track down the culprits. This is where Sulzer25's evidence could be useful.

As for me, I am a Hull City supporter, I travel accross the country every week by train, I am tee-total and I am not a hooligan. Indeed, I manage to combine my hobbies quite well.

The ref did a good job on that Brazil player he sent him off aswel as the newcastle player :lol:I always find that its the foreign players that do it the most always try a fake injury or fake fouls you watch match of the day next time its on you see its a foreign player the worse I think is Christian ronaldo good player but crys when gets a grandad, Us brits get up and carry on unless its a real Injury , Well we did invent the Football :D,

Anyway I would have those shot who did this but as that is very unlikey:| Its a tough one to call as said before if they knew it was you what would they do. Its up to you Miles.
