Britbowl XXII

[chrisM33]

Im a rugby guy, loved this back in 86, and its sad to see such a small crowd, the london monarchs back in the 90s at the start had regular 40,000+ crowds. I wonder if the rams vs pats game at wembley this year and the regular one NFL league game per year for the next couple is another attempt to kick start it again

im english and im only just getting into american football (im only 14) and tbh i think its better than football (soccer) i honestly dont get how so many people out of the us dont know about this amazing game!

Great to know that American Football seems to be gaining acceptance abroad. Didn't know that it really had a following in the U.K.

i hope american football grows in the UK, i love the sport, and if the uk would only learn it n consider it i think it can be huge in the UK

[sanddollarscholar]

Yeah, where the hell are all the people...the stands look almost completely empty.

[porkolicious]

nice crowd at the game. Sure looks like football is taking off in UK!! lol

[RockyM3003]

Why the fuck do Americans call it Football???

[matman1813sdc]

@RockyM3003 because it evolved from rugby football, rugby football was named after where it was invented. why would they keep calling it rugby football when they changed the game and made it their own makes sense to keep calling it football

[WARLORD1863]

I didn't think anyone outside of the US cared for American football. I always got grief from folks in Europe and Asia for liking an "inferior" sport. I guess there are a few out there who really get this amazing sport.

[ashleynicky8219]

I'm English, i've watched the game all my life and always loved it - the only game that matters!

[Testament1]
