I'd have been happier to see the Union Flag flying everywhere but it looks like we're all divided now.

With the covid spreading like wildfire again through the crowds all shoulder to shoulder there probably won't be many of our grandkids to see it either.

Re: I don’t like football

I am assuming that by football, you mean soccer, however it doesn't matter. There are only 2 sports I can stand Baseball(but only if it's live) and the Olympics. The Olympics is the only sport I watch televised. I don't know why, but sports I really don't get the attraction. As a photographer, I love sports because I love stop action photography, but could careless about the outcome.

Strictly speaking the Olympics isn’t a sport. It’s a gathering in which athletes compete in different sports.

Yes we mean the game that is called soccer in the USA and a few other countries. To most of the countries in the world it’s football as opposed to American and Aussie Rules football.

Sorry will try to be more specific in the future. Still the only televised sporting Events I care for.

Re: I don’t like football

This afternoon I saw a horrific video of football hooligans at Wembley last night. The people were trying to get in who didn't have tickets and the ticket holders where kicking the living daylights out of them. I saw one poor lad on the floor and being kicked in the head by three different men, what the hell is wrong with people, one would murder someone over a ruddy football ticket because after all, numerous kicks to the head could quite possibly kill someone, even one blow like I saw could have killed him.

I know some were wrong to try get in with no tickets but good lord, I was speechless when I saw that video, humans behaving like wild pack animals
