As far as cricket goes, not only is it boring but it is watched, and played by a slightly more middle class toffee nosed pile of C**** than you suggested played football. I cannot speak for it being owned by said people, but I'd be surprised if it wasn't.

Ironically, I shall be attending 3 Blackburn games shortly, despite being a spurs fan.
Ironically, White Hart Lane is my favourite ground - best atmosphere of any Premiership ground, used to be anyway. Can remember Klinsmann and Shearer duelling it out in 1995 (Spurs came out on top 3--1, Sutton scored the Rovers goal) and it was electric.

But as for the current football-watching constituency, it really has gone downhill: all you have now is a bunch of loud-mouth grousing fatheads who've grown up on Sky and expect immediate gratification and have no idea whatsoever what it is to follow a club.
