Do you live in Northampton? I am just down the road in Brackley! Its wall to wall Union in my town for sure! Don't see many RL shirts about....the odd Wigan car sticker in Oxford.
I certainly do for my sins. I used to see one guy walking 'round in a Wigan shirt in Beckett's Park quite often (very worrying given that place's reputation
), and one guy shouted "Rhinos" at me in Tesco in Weston when I had my Saints top on once, but otherwise it's wall-to-wall rah-rah and green/black/yellow 'round here... It's all bearable until one of the Union crowd at work starts asking me to explain the SL playoff system to them...
Oh, and then there's all the times that people ask me how I got on at Franklin's Gardens at the weekend, and I have to politely explain
yet again that I don't support THOSE Saints, and that there is in fact more than one kind of rugby to confused looking faces, AGAIN....
...and could anyone explain to me why the DW Sports next to Langtree Park has 3 entire racks full of dozens and dozens of brand new Leicester Tigers shirts while I'm here (and no other RU tops either)? How many of them do they think they're going to sell there exactly? Not to mention that apparently my brother-in-law found a load of last season's Saints shirts at the DW in Sixfields... I reckon their supply chain needs a bit of a sorting out...
