Re: ITV holds on to Rugby World Cup.
Oh thank heavens for that. How could we cope without the experts at ITV sport covering a world sports event for us. Maybe we'll get to miss the first England try in their first game.

Re: ITV holds on to Rugby World Cup.
Well if your national rugby team follows the performance of your football team, the rest of the home nations shall expect complete and total support from the English
Any criticism simply won't be allowed, lest it be taken as 'jealousy', 'sour grapes' etc

Re: ITV holds on to Rugby World Cup.
Nah, bitterness was the 6 nations 18 months after the RWC when England flopped and the fans got nasty on CF with the Welsh fans because we won...

Re: ITV holds on to Rugby World Cup.
great.... 6 weeks of Craig Doyle talking crap and thinking he knows what hes on about. Why couldnt the BBC get it, they do a pretty good job with the 6 nations every year (apart from that stupid spiderman camera they had) and their commentators are such much better than ITV's.At least Sky didnt get the rights
