No mention of the subsequent 6-0 thumping in 2003 then

Do the Daily Record not cover the Scottish teams then? Do BBC Scotland not cover the Scottish teams? I won't ask about the ITV companies, as from what I can see, they don't seem to bother with local broadcasts anymore.

Same thing with Wales.

The World Cup is the biggest show in town, perhaps if Scotland or Wales ever qualified for it they would recieve equal press, it's hardly fair blaming England just because we are the only home nation there again!

Sorry mate but that's just rubbish, when Wales won the 6 nations two years ago, the coverage we had was nothing like what England gets.

No one cares about rugby when England wins, it hardly gets blanket coverage

You remember when England won the rugby World Cup?? It's all we had for about a week.
