It's only the first day and already I am sick of it. I live a few minutes walk from Kingsholm stadium where tomorrow Tong and Georgia fight it out. The parties have already started and some clubs have decided to open 24 hours even the local nightclub which opens at 10pm opened it's doors at 12 noon today.

Then on Wednesday we have Japan and Scotland and I am not going to be looking forward to that, not if Scotland lose anyway it will be chaos!

Am I the only one who is already annoyed with the world cup? Surely I can't be.

Yay go tonga!!!

Yer sport not really my thing got bored after the first ten mins lol, having said that at least rugby is a proper mans game unlike football where they fall over and start crying lol. For those that love rugby I hope its memorable for them and obviously I hope England do there best

Living in a village with no pub (long and ongoing story that) this sort of thing can pass without notice here.

I'd happily trade almost any number of football fans for double the number of rugby fans. It's not just the shape of the ball that's completely different...

The tonga team were at Cheltenham Park Hotel last night. At least their team bus was.

dont agree, i dont follow rugby, but the fact the agression is taken out there and then it gets my thumbs up. i watch the england match and it took me back to the days when i was a prop.

 

Go on England !!!!

 

the problem with this country is that we moan this and we moan that, and we are definatley NOT patriotic enough. even tonight i spotted on FB posts like ban the burka, and stop the migrants and for what, so people can moan they hate this and they hate that. its your view and your are 100% entitles to it, but you are responsible for your actions and words.

 

migrant crisis, do we take on thousands of migrants? probably not. do we take on thousands of people who feared for their lives again the dreaded IS? who face execution/beheading and worse? now its a different picture. how do you seperate a legitimate IS flee'er and a common migrant? i have no idea, but hold onthe brakes untill  you do.

I think this sums up the difference between rugby and football quite nicely:

Its OK nails I know what your saying. Anyway as I live so close to the stadium there is very little parking so will sell my drive for £20 per car for the day. Will fit 3 cars on it and I could gladly sit outside with my tablet or laptop for a few hours. The parking at the stadium is crap. It's only a 3 minute walk to the main gates from my house. If the houses at the back of me wasnt there I could see the pitch from my bedroom window in stead all I get is the lights shining into my windows.

Aye todd you coming to Gloucester for the rugby lol. Can set u up for the night only £20 haha. No kilts though
