Just imagining a field of 22 Michael Gove clones jogging about and tripping up over the ball

Ben Fogle appearing in the pre match build up is the mark of a quality sporting event

Honestly thought he’d died from some tropical disease. He lives.

Obviously don’t give a shit because I’m not one of Those People, unless Oxford wins in which case it’s good material for winding up 'er indoors.

Yeah, I’ve been as well. Mooch at a mate’s, have breakfast, walk along the river, stop for 5 mins to watch them row past, then either duck into a pub or back to their house. Exposure to ultra Tories = minimal.

My actual idea of hell is a day at the races

My cousin does rowing. Would beat him up but he has really strong arms (from all the rowing)

Whats the point of the cox? Do they just yell?

I think they offer encouragement too. I know an ex cox and think he’s like that on land.

Just read two boats died in the lead up to this race. Don’t know how people can support such a barbaric sport

I’m very close to Craven Cottage, which is rather fitting, as in a similar spirit of neutrality, I just want all rowers to have a good race and enjoy themselves!
