You don't like watching football/soccer, Ferryman?

What could be better than sitting on a sofa with friends, a glass of cold beer & chips, watching how your favourite team plays?

The Ferry Man · « **Reply #7 on:** June 07, 2010, 13:24:37 »

Not a football person myself...

Watt the point, 22 man run after a ball, they catch it and continue to run after it and then they chick it to a man in something they call a goal but he will not have the ball and chick it out to the other again

an then all starts from the beginning again

I can see why those people who do like football can like it, as it's about supporting your team. What I don't like is how much those footballers get paid, and the mayhem football fans will create when their team looses.

That's why I don't like football - but I do watch the odd game here and there

TJK · « **Reply #11 on:** June 07, 2010, 14:03:14 »

Was a joke do, but i relay not a football man do

but glad not all are like me then, so this man and 20% of the worlds populations

can have some fun

football are only a big business, to serious and not so fun anymore

hope the best team/land win

To be honest I'm not much of a sports fan myself, and only watch the special events occasionally..
I'll follow the Dutch team with some interest, and maybe some other games that look exciting..

Same here, They get paid to much for what they do... I mean are they doing something useful like doctors or teachers...

yet they get paid more...

I agree with you too TJK - it is a game, and should be fun for those who enjoy it, not a giant business just to make money...
