If I,m going to pay to watch a game of football it will be the type played at Twickenham by men not limp wrist nancy boys

Or a bunch of homosexual public school boys.....

Surely a family ticket would be cheaper.

Their is no family ticket i rang them up.

5 tickets for Ł150, that's 'thirty quid' each!!
What else can you get (in terms of family entertainment) for that
I know it's a lot more expensive than it used to be, but so is everything else.
I wouldn't regard Ł30 as a lot for a premiership club, you'll probably pay that for some of the bigger championship clubs!

I know times are hard but try to find the money, give the boy his punishment,
sorry i mean treat, and have a great day out!

mention football and they all crawl out of the circuit boards, the poor lads who hate it because nobody wanted them in their team at school, the rugby boys, who play a game that can only be described as homoerotic, ( all that mn to man contact) and the rabid fans who foam at the mouth at the mention of anyone elses team.

Just FYI...... i'd still be playing now if my knees could take it. Only hung my boots up at 35
And you can say what you like about football but it's the closest thing i have ever felt to religion ( Maybe i'll explain that better when i have more time)

Actually if we wanted to sit in the cop end it would have been Ł180.00. And we dont support wigan we support only the best and thats liverpool.

[tintin]

"And we dont support wigan "

But you get what i meant tho'?

Hope you sort the tickets and have a great day out!

Over the years I have come into contact and made friends with a good number of people through my work and interest in:

Snakes, Crocks & Gators
Spiders & Scorpions
Marine life
Falconry
Primates
Wildlife TV/Film making
Photography
Travel
Rock climbing
Motorbikes
Cycling
Cars
Shooting Sports
Archery
Bush craft
Knife making / collecting
Militaria
Etc. etc.

And do you know what virtually every one of these people share in common? They all dislike Football.

They used to say that “religion is the opium of the people” but it is clear that football has taken over from religion for many people. Some people feel the need to be part of a team and are driven by a mob mentality..... I for one have always been far more comfortable to stick out as the odd individual who does not follow the crowd.

At School I always purposely forgot my PE kit unless it was cross-country running, archery, javelin or discus. While the other lads where out in the rain and cold kicking a ball around I was “punished” by having to sit on a bench in the sports hall while the girls had circuit training or trampoline lessons... just loved watching my girlfriend and her mates bouncing up and down

QED.

People interested in almost all of those are nerds, hence didn't like sport at school (as you have described), hence don't like football.

So are you saying that running, athletics, cricket archery etc.etc. is not real sport? I did like to do sports at school... it was just football that I hated.

I have never understood the attraction of football, especially when so many people’s lives seem to revolve around the game.

If “normal” is going to rowdy matches, and getting pi55ed afterwards then I’m very glad that I’m not normal

You never mentioned cricket before, that counts. Archery is no more a sport than darts though.

Anyway, it seems you like solitary pursuits whilst I am more into the team/social thing. Neither is right or wrong, just different.

You should try being 'normal' though, it's fun.

it would be a better planet if religion was irradicated and replaced by sport - any sport. not too many wars occur as a result of a difference in tastes of sports, just a few turds on forums squabbling - like ourselves. Just coz you didn't have the physical ability to get into football as a kid, doesn't mean i'm going to kill you.

as for the need to be driven by a mob mentality? thats an unnecessary and narrow minded statement in relation to the majority of football fans, bollox. are you saying that people who go 50,000 strong to concerts are following the music for the 'mob mentality'.

you must have something resembling intelligence, so use it man!
