Heard on the radio today that the Amex is going to be a ground for the Rugby World Cup.

I think there's 15 stadia been put forward as part of the bid, and it'll be whittled down to 10 - 12 for the tournament

Personally, they shouldn't allow the dark side of egg chasing at Wembley, seeing as they have Twickenham. I don't mind the skillful form of peanut hugging though.

Didn't fully understand that last bit, JN.

Well, if we are on the short list, then we will be chosen, coz we have a fab stadium.

I suspect Judge Nutmeg is diparaging of Rugby union, and espouses the cause of the cloth cap version of the game.
Must be from oop north.

It's an old, old Soccer AM joke and Rugby Union fans hate it.

Rugby Union - the dark side
Rugby League - NOT the dark side!

Oh, thanks, BJ

I thought rugby union was the good version?
