There is plenty of room to be disgruntled as a fan of sports other than football. But the fact is, football is the national game. Football fans (such as myself) often complain that the coverage their team gets doesn't match that of the bigger clubs. Again, the justification for this is that they ARE the bigger clubs, and therefore interest in them is greater. The media are giving the majority what it wants and as long as this is the case, it won't change. I agree with what you say, cdpark.
