Tomorrow, one of the biggest sporting events in the world takes place: The Super Bowl.

The New England Patriots chase their fourth title in 14 years  and face the 2013 champions the Seattle Seahawks.

Some  British people love it - but not all sports fans in this country.

Why not? Maybe it is the late hour it is shown.

It has all rugby's intensity and football's athleticism, yet it does not have mass appeal in this country.

We are told billions watch worldwide and the recent NFL UK matches, which have gone on tour in this country, have proved successful, extending from one, to three a year, prompting rumours of a British "franchise", due to the popularity of the Wembley showpieces.

Could American Football take off in this country? Would a British team playing in the American leagues be popular? Would you welcome it? Will you watch the Super Bowl on Sunday? Who will win? So many questions...
