Time for change? How much are fans being ripped off?

    Not really. Most of my friends are rugby men and I occasionally get into conversations of the length of in-play timings of the two sports. Sadly I carry around a Sunday Times cutting complaining about the in-play timing of first class club rugby for a particular weekend, think it was c. 2019, so ball in play:

    Bath v London Irish 33m 59 secs
    Bristol v Saracens 27m 06s
    Exeter v Leicester 29m 15s
    Harlequins v Sale 24m 58s
    N'hampton v Wasps23m 32s
    Worcester v Glous 32m 17s

    I rest my case M'lud.

    I never watch football per se! I saw 10 minutes of action of the last World Cup, and for me that was 10 minutes wasted. Give me athletics any day!

    Every game involving Bath is great value, whereas watching Bristol seems like an eternity.
