People are obvuously free to enjoy any sport, but if you werent a fan of, I dont know, swimming, but everything in Britain with regards TV, radio, adverts etc was shoving swimming down your throat, you'd probably be posting about how annoying it is.

What's the point of complaining? It's a futile exercise, I hate soaps... the extra primetime they get... every day of every week and then omnibus episodes for those who missed them and I don't feel the need to whinge about it on a bbs

I just get on with life and accept it, can't do much else... can you?

Well, if you hate complaining then stop moaning about soaps all the time.

I'm sorry but most of the time football doesn't get a look in these days on terrestrial TV. Take the other day where there were 3 episodes of Corination Street on in one day!! 3 fooking episodes and that doesn't inlcude any other soaps that were on ie. Emmerdale and some of the lesser well known.

Some weeks both Corrers and Eastenders are on 5 days a week.
They easily take up the most playtime. This doesn't even include the omnibus editions

Now along comes a few football matches and as already pointed out football is the biggest spectator sport on the planet.

The whingers are out in force from the first kick off giving it all this rubbish about it's over exposure, all fans are hooligans yadda yadda yadda. Why don't all these soap fans stop whinging and have a life of their own rather than watch someone elses!!

Football is **** and the fans are ****.

Soaps are **** and the fans are ****.

Both examples are of people living their lives through someone else's life or achievements instead of achieving something themselves. The only thing is, one is purely fictional ****e, and the other is a soap opera..
