Cool, that is probably going to be cheaper, and healthier than the pub. Place a few 50p/£1 bets over the course of a game and save lots of money (I am not a gambler and have only frequented a bookies only twice in 33 years, so it's not for me)
Also interesting to see the comments about pubs and hotels etc. Lets hope BT Sport helps improve their businesses in these tough economic times. I, personally, would prefer to go to a quiet, local pub with genuine fans, a real atmosphere and appetite for the game with decent and/or local lager/cider/ale to watch some rugby or football rather than a loud, large national pub chain with the mainstream guff lagers/ciders and a very poor and indifferent atmosphere.
If that paragraph does not show I am getting old, nothing else ever will

Ultimately I will not bring this up again and I look forward to the forum returning a quieter, more sensible place, with sensible posts from sensible people (other than myself obvioulsy)
