2016 Ryder Cup

[LlcoolJ]

I would enjoy it more if it was like the Davis Cup us against the yanks.

It used to be, as I'm sure you know, but it became completely unfair given the number of pro golfers, courses etc in the US compared to GB and Ireland. It's now a level playing field and makes for one of the greatest competitions in sport. I have no problem with supporting our team just the same as if they were all English.

I don't support Scotland, Wales or Northern Ireland in football but I do in the Olympics, or the Davis Cup.

Not content with the moronic 'Get on the hole' chant....the American Intelligencia now have

'It's short of the flag' for any green approach shot......


and the sub-moronic

'U U
U S A

U U
U S A'

Jeez I am somewhat surprised that they , as a Race, can walk on two legs?

This has gone to shit

Anyone catch the full insult shouted at McIlroy whilst still in his swing for his second shot? Very loud, and something about his father.,it really riled Rory, disgusting behaviour. I mean really made him angry, just happened now....

Rory got him ejected.....

What is all the FUSS about ? It's just another OVER HYPED SKY Sports nonsense and ANYWAY we shouldn't be playing as we're NOT in EUROPE anymore

We are still at the moment but when Brexit kicks in what then will it be the end of our involvement of the Ryder Cup. Not if as usual Sky have their say.

What a load of bollocks. Worst case it'll be 'UK and Europe' but I think the competition is based on geography, not the political organisation of countries. We're not leaving the continent.

It irritates me the U - S - A chant and the seeming lack of class and the crassness, but actually it has raised the awareness and enjoyment of the event.

I got bored of golf, well golfers actually a few years ago so wouldn't be watching this without the current partisan crowds and the millionaire golfers showing some passion, its nearly there in terms of a worthwhile sporting event ...............

Fair play @BG. Tricky job to try to spot when you're joking though......[emoji23][emoji23]

I accept that as it is my sense of humour, weird some say.

We've ALREADY left EUROPE as there is no land to LINK us anymore

I don't think we'll turn it round, but stranger things have happened.

Ryder Cup Singles day is truly one of the best events in global sport to watch though. Be great watching later on whatever the result.

Except for the loud mouthed yanks.
Watch it with the sound turned down and subtitles on is my advice.
They make my piss boil.

Who doesn't like a bit of USA bashing.

The BBC - they seem to be trying to turn us into the 51st state now. As well as F##king Farage.

We get obscure death notices of people no-one's heard of put as front news items, plus a train crash as the lead story where ONE person was killed. But of course it was in NY.

I suppose it proves how safe our own railway system has become, we hardly have any fatal accidents (as opposed to depressingly large numbers of suicides) on British railways now. I'm touching wood here.

You forgot the tunnel and as Bob Monkhouse once said it was a French idea so they could get to London quicker to surrender if another war broke out. I think that he forgot the resistance movement.
