Rugby.
I'm saying no, far to complicated for football fans to follow, so not council.Sod it i'd like to nominate cricket as well, anyone who sings that ridiculous 'Barmy Army' song has to be in the council club.
I'd say a non-council sport, despite the best efforts of the gambling companies sponsoring it, would be snooker. No way a councilist audience would be able to keep quiet and only politely applaud every so often.
I'd also say club level motorsport - luckily all the chavs and wasters seem to stick to attending BTCC or MotoGP events (as evidenced by the air horn usage), and leave the low-level and classic events alone

I don't - if rugby is council, it's certainly not on the same plane of council as football and football "supporters".

Snooker and snooker halls are very council and only one step up from the uber council sport of darts. I feel guilty calling darts a sport but...I'd say a non-council sport, despite the best efforts of the gambling companies sponsoring it, would be snooker.

Overweight blokes and their other half wearing a size to small replica shirt, getting pissed up and singing ridiculous songs. Of course rugby is council.
Sod it i'd like to nominate cricket as well, anyone who sings that ridiculous 'Barmy Army' song has to be in the council club.
It is an unfortunate development of modern times that cricket has attracted a following by what are little more than lost football types. It is a shame that people are no longer capable of sitting and watching respectfully with a polite clap for a well played stroke or delivery. Personally, I would like to see anyone turning up at the ground in replica shirts and face paint refused entry.Sod it i'd like to nominate cricket as well, anyone who sings that ridiculous 'Barmy Army' song has to be in the council club.
Jolly bad show and all that.

Union is played down south, by folk so poor they can only rent a house which by its very nature is council…league is played oop north in a small corridor based on M62 (and by the Jam Eaters of West Cumbria) by exceptionally large gentlemen we bring in from New Zealand, Samoa and our smaller but faster cousins from former penal colonies.

If snooker is council (and Victorian toffs did look down their noses - billiards was the gentleman's sport) then what does that make pool?
Clearly pool is council as it is a septic thingI would like to nominate "beach volleyball" (femail version) as a non-council sport. Been watching it all afternoon in Los Cristianos, whilst Mrs Marky is having a spar day.
