Just a couple of guys jumping around a wee room hitting a ball so small and fast nobody can see it anyway. Agreed, as a spectator sport squash is unwatchable. I'd add judo to that list, probably at the top. You have 2 guys holding on and sizing each other up then they seem to stumble and fall and by some undecipherable criteria one is declared the winner. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't record it if i was out but wouldn't turn over like i would for say golf or mma. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
die hard doonhamer Posted September 2, 2020 Share Posted September 2, 2020 Cricket, American football, golf and F1 are all fantastic spectator sports. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bully Wee Villa Posted September 2, 2020 Share Posted September 2, 2020 First two correct, golf is okay when it's Ryder Cup. Formula One is w**k. And the women at work love it so I have to hear about it all the time. Basketball must be the worst sport going though. You score, we score, you score, we score, you score, we score, you score, we score. Repeat until someone wins 104-102. Why don't they put the net higher, allow tackling or make it so that it is actually difficult to score? Ludicrous sport. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest JTS98 Posted September 2, 2020 Share Posted September 2, 2020 (edited) People who don't like cricket are almost entirely bandwagon jumpers who just know that it's socially the right thing to say in Scotland and will lie about having actually watched it. Cricket is fantastic. In many ways a better spectator sport than football. Miles better to attend in person than football in general.

Derry Alli Posted September 2, 2020 Share Posted September 2, 2020 I enjoy watching golf on TV. Fucked if I'd pay to watch it live in person. Same with snooker. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How does that make it shite? I've watched Australia play various one day and test matches in Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, and Perth. It's certainly not a posh boy's game over there. Indeed, the MCG is arguably the only good thing about Melbourne. I've also been to see Sri Lanka play India in Colombo and been to two 20/20 World Cups. Maybe the best sporting experiences I've ever had. Not a posh boy in sight. Cricket's excellent. Your prejudice is your problem. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've no real affinity for cricket but I'd happily watch a close, limited overs match - more exciting than a lot of sports. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
