Seems to be the modern way, ever increasing amounts of added time in football, one hour halves of rugby, T20 innings’ that go on for ever (with time outs in India to show more adverts) and rounds of golf taking four and five hours. To be fair, none of the above has put me off the sports involved apart from rugby which I think has got a serious problem in that it’s becoming a sport that only appeals to obsessives.
