I know we did this about a year ago, but we seem to have a nice glut of new users, so how about we do a little paragraph on each person?

Me.

Drinks: Gallons of coffee when working, gallons of beer when not working, red wine with me tea. Number of units per week? You having a laugh!
Kicks and scrums and ruck and roll.....Is all my brain and body need!

I'm Tom and I'm 30. I run a business from home, so I come on here fairly frequently, though don't post so much anymore. Depending on who you ask (me), my posts are usually insightful, witty, whimsical and amusing / (everyone else) random nonsense.

I've got a wonderful fiancée (she agreed to come to the EDF final, so I've gotta say that) and an 8 year old daughter who is showing a worrying lack of obsession with rugby. No pets.

Season ticket holder for 5 years, Block M of the Crumbie Stand.

I love real ale, am not adverse to the occasional pint of Guinness, and believe that anyone who wants to be a politician by choice really shouldn't be allowed.

Martin

Male, 32, live in Stoke but may move soon.

Pets: None, but would like a Springer Spaniel at some point

Tigers: First year season ticket holder in Crumbie seats, Block L.

Other sports: will watch pretty much any sport, but nothing beats rugby.

Music: Too varied to list

Drinks: I rarely drink alcohol, but when I do it doesn't really matter what it is, so long as it is not tequila. Apart from that do a fair amount of fruit/herb teas. Nothing caffieney apart from the occasional diet coke

John, 29 but look 16. I act like a 40 year old though.

Born in Wigston but moved to Nottingham to go to university and never left. i live next to the river trent in a flat I own with my girlfriend.

Work for the Council as a Surveyor. Not a bad job by all accounts.

Skinny but dreadfully unfit, though I play badminton once a week and also ten pin bowl in a league.

Music used to be good, but have found nothing in the last 5 years to get excited about. My tastes are...rather alternative (odd, as my Mother used to describe them).

Other sports are numerous. Union first, closely followed by NFL. Following that that comes Rugby League, Ice Hockey (regularly attend Panthers games), cricket and at a push association football.

I'm a moody little kid but in general, I'm happy with that.

Me - Chris

Male, aged 24 years and 10 months.

Pet-less, but once had an old English sheepdog.

Season ticket holder in the Crumbie seating, have been for a dozen or so years.

Works (as a newspaper sports editor) and lives, for his sins, in Coalville.

Other sports - I am a Leeds Utd fan (seriously guys, stop laughing at me now), but I can quite happily watch most sports, except hockey. Can also be found on a teenis court or a five-a-side football pitch on occasion.

Music - A thoroughly bizarre collection ranging from 60s' soul, through to modern day indie, having stopped off at traditional Malian music, the LSD-inspired 'alternative' scene and the entire back catalogue of Bon Jovi on the way.

Drinks - Regularly.
It's only cheating if you get caught.
