I have just conducted a scientific experiment with my kids during tea. I asked for the opinions of a 6 year old and a 12 year old as to whether they thought that Leeds were a dirtier team than Scum. My 12 year old thought that it wasn't really a fair comparison as the teams played in different divisions and they would really need to play against each other to make the statistics fair with the stats from the head to head game being the clincher as there may have been other mitigating factors (A well thought-out argument I thought but then again he is a bright lad). My 6 year old first asked who Scum were (well he is only 6)and then said that he didn't care but asked if he could play Lego Star Wars on the playstation!!
