Yes very true.
I was having this conversation with my friends in the pub on Saturday night. The efforts of our cyclists really shows up the footballers for what they are. Don't get me wrong. I love football, but most of the players nowadays are just a bunch of overpaid prima-donnas who wouldn't recognize real effort and achievement if it slapped them in the face.
And yes. The media in this country do seem to prefer it when we loose.
