Anyone else not watching the football?

Hi

I am not watching it, don't do football.

I don't do football either, in fact I cannot stand the game at all. Unfortunately though it's on the one channel that insists I have to pay a TV Licence to watch, whatever rubbish is broadcast!

We don't do football either. We've downloaded a shedload of dramas to watch while this tournament is on.

The only time I realised some big football thing was on, was when I read that about that poor guy collapsing on the pitch. Football is never on in our house.

Nor in mine, the closest that gets is the first few notes of 'Match of The Day'! That is limited to how long it takes to access the remote and either swiftly turn it off or change channels!

Edited to add:
As with many things though there is the exception to that which is women's football. Now that is entirely different and not for what most might say is the obvious attraction. No, those matches are very different, far more 'sporting' with more skill used and none of this 'falling down, writhing in agony' from a simple tackle as in the few minutes of men's matches I have seen played.

Happy to say that I've never watched a game in my entire life, and I just detest the hysteria associated with it from normally sane people, I just don't get it ...

No football for me either. If there is nothing alternative to watch, I have a lot of shows still to download and watch from Amazon Prime.
