so what if it is only a blog, its been uploaded and obviously sanctioned by one of the giants of the internet "YAHOO". its a disgrace.

He mentions it's a '4 team tournament', i'm impressed by this comment, we'd have heard it's a 3 team tournament not long ago, so that's progression for the sport

Rugby League not as big as football shocker!

What the fudge?

Why do people take the time to write something like this?

I tried reading it but it was a load of drivel. Sounds a very bitter man.

Move on.

He's a no name looking for a bit of scandal to improve his profile.
No better than a troll coming on here.

Better to leave him along. Anyone watching the games knows he is the one missing the point.

The funny thing is, its clear from the posts on this forum that the World Cup is going very well. People are loving the games involving the lesser nations and crowds have been good.

Well now there is a link on here, that will have doubled his veiwers to 12.

I was living a happy life without his insight so I've decided to by pass curiosity and not click on the link. There are enough opinions on here that I don't agree with, without actively looking for other people who I disagree with.

I don't really understand why someone goes out of their way to slag something off that has no effect on them, and that it's fans enjoy so much.

Why do people get so wound up by things that don't concern them? Even if 4 people watched Rugby League, why would it bother him?! The 'World' cup. So what? You don't like it, won't watch it pal.

And is obviously so much less credible than the (at max) 5 team tournament that the Union World Cup is.

To be honest, when the Union WC comes along, I can only see one team winning it......

Eurosport - Dearie Me - the station which pushes Tractor Racing -

- pass me the pills Nurse

Not accessed the link and don't propose to.

But the football World Cup, the biggest of all world cups, only ever has 4 maybe 5 credible contenders.

This is what is known as "trollemic" or "linkbait", basically a deliberate wind-up that is fishing for reaction in order to drive clicks, it's not meant to be a serious piece of analysis or opinion or whatever, it is deliberately sloppy trash journalism.

2/7........I take it you don't gamble much. It's a trash article.....nothing more nothing leasa

he's been suitably lambasted in the comments section

Just checked on snopes and the baseball World Series doesn't derive it's name from early sponsorship of the NY World newspaper. You unlearn something everyday.

It is a bit of push to call it a World Cup - but see also RU and Cricket.

Will that man have been paid money to write that? Or has he done it for his own entertainment and enjoyment? I'm not sure which'd be stranger.

Who's the second?

The guy's a bit-part journo with little or no experience of RL. I wouldn't even bother giving him the time of day...

Ha Ha,
You've got to laugh at this fools bio, it's so fluffed up with made up contributions to half assed publications and low value Internet blogs that instead of creating credibility it makes him look like a desperate attention seeker!
As for his so called article, it's so poorly informed and loaded with preconceptions it just makes the guy look like another death riding idiot like that Mail writer the other week.

Go back to writing about your sub standard 1 team SPL and dreaming that Scottish soccer will one day rise from it's position of being the laughing stock of British sport. Leave writing about a real mans sport to real journalists who at least take the time to watch a few games and do some research.

They'll let any old hack keyboard warrior write nowerdays.

Lol

That's a bit of a stretch to give him the label 'journo', clearly his employer's management structure isn't all that great if they are not only giving jobs to simpleton's like this but allow them to play with their crayons on tinterweb..

I just about managed to read the lot before I nodded off. The lad goes on a bit, with very little purpose. It'll have kept him off the streets for a few hours though.

Nothing to see here. The man clearly has a very small penis

He writes for the Sunday Mail as well. We need to find this moron's email address and lambast him.
