6 Nations Starts

Great to hear Eddie Butler commentating on the France v Italy match. This doesn't mean that I have suddenly become a fan of the dreadful Welshman, but at least we won't have to suffer his tirade of Anglophobic rants in the Calcutta Cup!

I am a great fan of good rugby and am in no way anit-Welsh. As someone who grew up in the days of real Welsh power in the 1970s I have always admired their passion for the game. I still do. I just hate poor commentators and really cannot understand why the BBC are wasting my licence fee paying Butler. If the Beeb can't find someone to replace him just pick any random rugby supporter and there is a fair chance that we would get a better service!

Iamgine how I felt when watching the fantastic Ireland v Wales game only to have it spoiled by the BBC's ridiculous decision to use Butler twice in the one weekend. Is this some plot to frive viewers away from the Six Nations.
