Frequency of that tactic versus feigned injury??? Sent from my SM-G900F using Tapatalk

But the incidence of dangerous elbows (sometimes with intent) in football can do even more damage than eye gouging. Most contact sports have their unacceptable destroying tactics & those willing to practice them. In general I would much rather watch a rugby international for excitement &...

If diving, injured theatrics, time-wasting & childish baiting of the ref & each other were as rare as all the things you mentioned - professional football would be a much better spectator sport than it is currently imo Sent from my SM-G900F using Tapatalk

It's not especially though. I'm a football fan. Passing interest in rugby until we are talking the 6 nations or other internationals. No allegiance to any particular club. But I think incidents involving rugby fans are isolated & contained to very small numbers. And when anything happens there...

Back to respect though aren't we? I don't like Soul music but I wouldn't start gauding or abusing or intimidating people on their way to/from a concert or playing a tune in their home or car - you would would you? Sent from my SM-G900F using Tapatalk

That will not happen overnight will it? Anyone that thinks it through properly knows that. But like what we have all been saying about the lost generations now for CCFC. If they still go for football - it will increasingly be the Manchesters, Chelsea, Liverpool, Arsenal or Spurs that they spend...

Ah yes - my bad on that, although Cyrille Regis, John Terry & hosts of others might disagree. Had they played rugby from an early age they'd have bulked up more earlier & fitted in easily. Matt Dawson & many others aren't huge build so I can't accept the reasoning. The main point in the...

It's definitely an interesting subject. Look at MK Dons...avg attendances just under 10.5k last season. The local people are slowly but increasingly attaching to them. Those emotionally attached to the original Wimbledon have probably largely been lost...but they seem to be thriving & growing...

Not big enough...like Martin Johnson you mean? Virtually all of NZ & a fair chunk of Australia? Chief Dave got it right - lots of people in Coventry particularly aren't interested in Wasps...hence it didn't register. Lots of people are pleased with the result because just like with us in '87 -...

And have become a great club! Disrespecting of pub teams too. The fact is that gauding another team or their supporters from the car is as disgusting & disgraceful as what Milwall fans did at Wembley last week. The equivalent of kicking someone while they're down, like pinching the beggar's cap...

Just like Wayne Rooney only plays for Wayne Rooney - not Man Utd, hence he is looking at options currently. He isn't thinking about playing second fiddle to help out when the first choice gets injured or banned. Sent from my SM-G900F using Tapatalk

Since he stopped him - I guess it does? Sent from my SM-G900F using Tapatalk

Which created more problems than it solved probably Sent from my SM-G900F using Tapatalk

Yes...where too is what I'd like to know? Sent from my SM-G900F using Tapatalk

Buy my sons lives are far more precious than yours...to me Sent from my SM-G900F using Tapatalk

Distributed just like FA Cup final tickets I would guess. Local FAs & clubs all get a cut...some raffle them to raise funds for example. My '87 ticket was through Staffordshire FA & for the Spurs end...met a couple of baffled spurs fans with tickets from Essex FA (stamped on th back as were...

See I feel a bit for Wasps. Finished first...won more games than Exeter. To think Leicester could have won through & become champions...makes a farce of things really. VERY pleased for 'small-town' Exeter who everyone predicted would be relegated the next season on promotion...two fingers to...

You'd take no prisoners at all would you? Just shoot them. Imagine how many more British lives would have been lost in conflicts around the world over time had that approach been taken by all sides? You would be happy with their blood on your hands? As Gandhi once said 'be the change you want...

It's a known fact that this term 'sympathiser' in relation to Corbyn & the IRA is a media applied term surely? Is there any actual quote from him? Or the answer "Yes" to a direct question on the issue? Certainly, I heard this interview & what you choose to take from his words is up to...

One good reason is that success breeds success. Others may gain inspiration to do the same actions. I don't think anyone in the debate is saying from a world perspective that a British life if worth more than an Iraqi (or whatever) life either...but the closer to home it gets...the higher the...
