Maybe you're not homesick because you had no friends to leave behind? From your posts you don't sound particularly pleasant, so I suppose it would make sense. |

Its the pile into Jim thread it seems.
He was just defending where he lives from a poster that said it was a backward hole.
I have been to New Zealand, England, the USA and Australia many times.
The North of England is not the top of that list IMO.
Each to their own, he has a right to reply surely?

| Quote: JEAN CAPDOUZE "Before he left England Samuel said that he would like to play for London some day. This would take up 50% of the London cap, but along with the signing of Samuel Rapira, it would guarantee that London gets promoted back to its rightful place in Super League.'"
How come you think that London should be promoted back to its "rightful" place in Super League ? Does London have more of a right to be in Super League than other teams ? |

Gutters, you are forgetting your modesty and your excellent interpersonal skills, which enable you to get on so well with everyone, even those with whom you disagree. We are truly fortunate for your presence. |

Yeh, but you're paying 1980's prices 
NZ is one of the dullest places on Earth. |

UK City of Culture for 2017 i'll have you know! All the prostitutes on Hessle Road sing Opera and recite poetry while providing their "service".  |

I quite like Hull - nice old town area - real ale pubs - plenty of charm.

It's 'gutterfax' under another name, which might make a lot of sense. |

Yes it does have the right. London is the capital of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland. It must be represented in Super League if rugby league is to be taken seriously in the UK, let alone overseas.
Also, let us not forget that London has produced stars like Daniel Sarginson, Louis McCarthy-Scarsbrook, Anthony Clubb, Kieran Dixon, Mason Caton-Brown, Michael Channing, etc. The list goes on. |
