    Cyprus Denied World Cup Chance

    So apparently the IRB have decided that developing Rugby in Cyprus is less important than developing it in Greece...even though the Greeks are terrible at Rugby and Cyprus has won 18 internationals in a row (a world record).

    You can read about the whole debacle here http://www.espnscrum.com/2015-rugby-...ry/180581.html and sign the petition here
    to convince the IRB to review their decision.

    As Force supporters we already back underdogs...seems like these guys deserve some love as well.

    Done. I read an article about the team a few months ago and it seems like a chance to bring people together in a country that has so often been divided - although the team is mostly Greek they do have at least one Turk in the side and he is a popular player.
