Re: I don’t like football

Can I have the last word? I've attended a total of 6 professional matches in my life and thoroughly enjoyed maybe 1 of them (Wolves v Forest League Cup Final 1980 when Wolves won 1-0). I fell asleep watching Lazio play Sampdoria in Roma (took my ex FiL to watch a watch when they came to stay with us for a couple of weeks) and nearly froze to death watching Boca Juniors play River Plate in B. Aires when I was there on business.

Re: I don’t like football

Perhaps you should all watch Rugby, where the players don't have their hair styled & put their mascara on before the match!

Any links to that statement? Or was it you just joking?

Did George Berry play in that match, by any chance, Percy? He played for Wolves in the 1980s, and was the first black player to play in Division 1.

Could be, could be, although I've never seen or been involved in either. Without at least trying both I wouldn't really know so cannot give a definite answer.

Re: I don’t like football

You load of spoilsports!
I don’t like football at at all, preferring Rugby Union but l have got caught up in the euphoria, the happiness and the achievement of England.
This isn’t all about football... this is about achievement, the fight to win and succeeding when so much has been against us.

I hope Gareth Southgate is knighted, he has really pulled England, the country out of the doldrums and given England some hope for the future.

I am so pleased for the young people and the old too, how they have been lifted by England’s success and celebration.

I will put a bottle of champagne in my fridge tonight in the hope that they win.

If they don’t, they did everything they could.... to Bring It Home...
