New research published by the Office of National Statistics reveals that up to 1.5% of British men prefer soccer to rugby. A spokesman for the FA, Mr. P. Tatchell, said "we think that the actual number is far higher, but it's just that people are embarrassed to admit it". He continued, "levels of bigotry against soccer fans continue to be under-reported; after all, it's still very hard to come out to your mother as a soccer fan, so you can only imagine what how difficult it is to tell an anonymous researcher, especially if he's 6'4" tall, 18 stone and wearing a 'Saracens' shirt.
