Rugby League & Rugby Union both have professional leagues and regularly pull in crowds of around 10,000 or more. Athletics has good crowds too. Then you have things like Darts & Snooker which I played just as much growing up as I did playing football. Those sports are watched in their millions on TV.
There's no way that football is the only sport in the UK.
