Super England Sports
Being an England fan is a topsy-turvy experience. Like all supporters of their national countries, expectations are often a tad higher than they probably should be.
However, we are all for setting the banner high, and sometimes taking that approach has paid off: notable examples are England's rugby world cup victory and Team GB's performance in the Beijing Olympics.
We provide background information on the various sports and their participants.
