I'm not pretending TH. It was not huge news over here, which I hasten to point out is actually part of the world. It's a pretty reasonable, based on the replies in this thread from other people outside the British Isles, to conclude that it's maybe not quite as big a story as you perceive it to be.
It's amazing how unmoved they are at the possibility of British news about British sports not being as hyped around the world as the British think. It almost reminds me of American stereotypes who can't imagine a world that doesn't revolve around them.
