Danny been teaching you how to be obtuse?

No but I have been in the same situation where there was 10 mins of a rugby match left to go which I was watching, and somebody came in and demand the tv be turned over for a football match.
Its rude IMO

Bless

Were you sat in a football orientated pub?

Was the game advertised as being show on the big screen?

Was the rugby game you were watching advertised as being shown?

No

Yes

Yes

Well then that would be rude – I’d gone to the pub to specifically watch an advertised game.

Not showing the game that they’d advertised was rude.

You have to ask "is anyone actually watching these two cockney teams playing roundball?" and the look menacing. Then tell the bar staff no one is watching the soccer, get the proper sport on.

But surely you did see it, just not the first ten mins?
Was the football game advertised as well?

Did you tell them or not say anything and just bleat on here instead?

No - just the Rugby.

When I asked the bar staff I was told I'd have to wait until after the football.

HTH

So did you question it or did you just accept it then moan about it on here?

just go to a proper rugby league pub.

Woodies ,Headingley

Three Horseshoes, Headingley

Think I might just opt for Woodies in th future

Iv been in there before when they have had the rugby on 1 TV and the football on the other. You should have just suggested that.

Nah. He'd rather just moan about it on here rather than think laterally.

I watched the game in the skyrack and it was rammed with nal supporters so it was understanderble that they kept the game on in there. They soon left as soon as the footy had finished and on went the RL 10 mins late. cest la vie.

Albert in Yeadon! They would show the Football and Rugby at the same time - with preference to Rugby!!

Boo hoo.

is it on this saturday in the horsforth?

I was in they a few weeks back. Wouldn’t that put you off?

That would never have happened in Graham's day! It was a corking little boozer then, right opposite my work. It was often the place to just go for 'one'.

He was a weird looking chap the one that wanted to watch the football, he looked very much like Heva from eastenders and proceeded to tell us that rugby was "absolutely sjit and a waste of money and that we should all be at elland road like him and all rugby players/fans were scum of the earth, all the players were puffs and soft

" even though he then said that he couldnt afford it and had been in the pub drinking all day instead



A very nice chap he was ....honest

Hell no, I’d love to meet up some time – you could by me a drink, it’ll be like a tax refund for me.
