Thread Name: BS: Ban Football [Soccer]
Subject: RE: BS: Ban Football [Soccer]
But I like football and I can assure you my parents who are season ticket holders at Norwich are not yobs or want fights. Pip, my mum turns 70 this year!

I'd agree there can be a yobbish culture attached to the game but I've never worked out why this is.

As for the money, as a supporter of a smaller club, it's easy for me to say I don't like it. I think though even if I supported a wealthy club like Man U or Chelsea, I would question the value we put on someone's skill at kicking a bit of inflated leather around.
