Title says it all really. Allez les bleus (clair)
In my childhood The Boat Race was a major sporting event, followed avidly by everyone within the family. I backed Cambridge simply because they won the year I was born… the rest made their own choices…
Always lots of shouting/noise throughout and even louder wails when the wrong team won…
Fantastic women’s race, don’t really see why Cambridge didn’t take the Surrey side in the men’s race but there we are. Oxford rowed a blinder.
Really enjoyed both races and no sinkings is always a bonus
I see Oxford and Cambridge both got to the final again
I can’t remember who I used to support but it was the one from which my GCE O Level exams came, and I passed some.
Mine with were JMB - Joint Matriculation Board - a mixture of the two I think.
And here they go again!
Wonderful race, very exciting
Both races were excellent - and three cheers for all, winners and losers alike.
Missed it, did the blue team win?
