Or at least, someone at ITV is a prick for hiring this guy to do commentary.
Thank you Will Greenwood for completely ruining the South Africa V Argentina game with endless references to the England squad, and selling Josh Lewsey’s injury the previous night like he’d been shot. I’m not the only one to notice this:
Some absolute tosser has spent the day tearing around the area in his orange Lamborghini. While I appreciate his taste in vehicles, I don’t appreciate the fact that the offensively-loud engine is drowning everything out – comparable to the planes going over from London City Airport – for the 2 seconds he has to speed up between speed bump and traffic lights and/or roundabout.
The title of this post has been shamelessly SEO’d in the hope that he’s vain enough to input “orange lamborgini” and “london” or “docklands” to see if anyone’s mentioned him.

Wales were knocked out of the Rugby World Cup yesterday by Fiji in quite the see-saw contest. I can see how it’s quite possible for sports fans to keel over and die in the midst of a match, it was that stressful. (more…)
The woes of the day have been eased somewhat by seeing England thoroughly defeated by South Africa in Paris this evening. 36-0 was the score, and ear-to-ear was my grin. (more…)
I’m drafting this post on the train from Swansea back to London, reflecting (seething, actually) about some of the performances of this weekend’s Rugby World Cup games. (more…)
I was astounded this afternoon by a brutal-looking spear tackle by the USA’s Paul Emerick on England’s Olly Barkley. For the uninitiated, a spear tackle is a dangerous tackle in rugby where a player is picked up by an opposing tackler, then turned so that they are upside down. And plonked on their head. (more…)

The Will Greenwood Drinking game
How Will Greenwood are you?
If there’s any justice in the world he will never, ever be let anywhere near a microphone again.
