No, can't be doing with it either. The game itself is bad enough, but the way it is treated as a religion by many including the media is pathetic.

And then there is the thug/hooligan element. I know it is a fairly small minority, but it doesn't happen in any other sport - make of that what you will.

used to love it, but these days the footballers are complete *******, only in it for the money. Not passionate enough now days, no even passion for the teams they play for, just there because they was offered a good pay. And the premier league now days are full of foreigners. Football is a business these days not a sport. load of **** these days and a load of *******

My telly isn't even on...... if it's England playing I will have it on in the background and run into the living room if they score or something, but apart from that, can't be bothered about it at all.

Overpaid primadonnas as far as I am concerned, one little kick and they roll on the grass like they have been nuked, then 2 mins later they are running about as if nothing had happened...

I reckon they should give them all a ball.........

I must be the only one who actually sits facing the other way in the pub when the footy is on....and love it when you get to see grown men crying and smashing pint glasses in anger when they lose.

Saying that you always get to pull the ladies when the footy is on as all the other males are fixed on the widescreen.....staring at other men !!!

Rugby all the way for me, tighter shorts and tougher men

Having said that I must confess that I am watching the game at the moment and yelling at the pathetic players every time they pretend to be hurt Bunch of girls.

He didn't mention my shouting though

If only it was just an hour and half!

Just watched watched 5 mins of the game...actually, I hate that, 'the game' 'Are you watching the game tonight?' What feckin game, football, rugby, cricket, bingo, what feckin game?! Anyhoo, Ronaldo (btw, how many Ronaldos are there?) has some chap run vaguely near him so he falls over grasping his leg as if it's about to fall off, gets a free kick and then magically recovers withing 30 seconds, what a cheating ponce! Also, every time Chelsea get the ball, the Man U fans start whistling, I guess in an attempt to put Chelsea off, how unsporting is that, tossers! :rolleys:

And I'm still bored

liked when it was played by men. A rugby player said recently - a footballer spends 90 mins pretending he's been hurt. A rugby player spends 80 mins pretending he hasn't.

Pi**es me of they keep taking The Bill off ch3 for football

The Bill, are you having a laugh? Hands up if you've watched a full episode of The Bill in the last ten years.

Hopefully I'll get the job as I'm looking for an easy way to lose friends fast

Oh well. That was only the second reason though.

The first was the uniform+women+handcuff equation
