“Brits have a funny relationship with sports that many people would consider ‘boring’. Some people almost enjoy the fact that their favourite sports are dull as dishwater, as it gives them a sense of pride about loving something most people can’t understand. But for the vast majority of us, their confusing rules and slow pace mean they’re impenetrable to all but the most dedicated followers.” said Gregory Tatton-Brown, a spokesperson for online casino Casumo.com, who commissioned the research.
