Are you an ex-pat Aucks ?, I thought you were a total Kiwi.
Weve done well to get to the Final but I do think it was also because of New Zee's surprise exit in the Qtrs. There arent many exciting RL games that finish only 6-0 are there, but I was hooked right till the last minute of this match.

I still support everything British, in terms of sport, Acido. NZ is a great place to live but I haven't been able to cut through my roots!
My three most used desktop shortcuts are BRFC, Gloucester Rugby and Gloucestershire C.C.C.

I was brought up on rugby, Acido. My dad started taking me to Kingsholm when I was three! I always liked football as well, though.
Why Rovers? Lost in the mists of time, to be honest. My dad reckoned I once told him I chose the team because I liked the name Blackburn. Anyway, it goes back to when I was five or six - which is many, many moons ago - and I have never wavered.
Gloucester, of course, is easily big enough to support a League football-team, but it's one of the few places where rugby was always the working-class sport, and football has always been the poor relation there.

Streuth, Alf - in my sixty-odd years of support, there hasn't really been that much "glory"!
