Re: The World Cup
Each to their own Swimmy.
Over the century's certain Royals have banned the game even Cromwell was not happy about it but at the end of the day the game as survived and always will.
Its the biggest money maker on the planet although I would rather it was played for the skills than the money.
Its also nice to see in this day and age of money we can still glimpse the natural beauty on the field of play, which gives me hope for the future of the kids who play the game.
I disagree with a lot of things in football especially the FA's early age policies of grabbing kids as young as 6/7 and clubs promising parents big handouts.
I am hoping one day some one will see sense again and raise the age to at least 9 as it was in my day if not higher.
Taught and coached a lot of players in my early years had a few uncles who played the game have nephews who made their fortunes in the game.
Unlike a lot of family members I have never followed glory always been a Middlesbrough fan.
My bro in law who passed on Sunday will be buried in his Millwall shirt with a blue and white scarf wrapped around his coffin.
There are millions around the world just like me.
But there are those that will never like the game which is their loss.
Come On England.
