Football

I can't hoover or make any domestic announcements or get hubbie to pop down road to
collect free wardrobe...or dish up the roast yet...all life is frozen until 3pm because....apparentley Manchester United is playing
a match against Manchester City, something about the FA cup ?...
Dad and 2 lads are glowering and issuing threats and abuse to the inanimate TV screen...
''Oh my God!!!!No No No!!!!! You ------ idiot!!!....you ------!!!!' etc etc...
they fallen for a con surely? I bet not one player on either side is from the territory they claim to represent, ie Manchester..
the team demographic is more likely to represent South or Central America than any of our stodgy Northern cities and counties
and how many Mancunians have season tickets or have even been to a home game? In other words this game apart from leaching our attention and energy and money.....is not connected to the Bristish people in any way except to keep big business and greed going...
Its all about big corporations like SKY and NIKE and the fans are too thick to see it
even though there is no intimacy enjoyed by the poor saps watching...

I expect the hurling of insults replaces primevil tribe warfare but it's a bit pathetic isn't it?
Aren't people better off going to a real live game in a local league than wallowing in their own
potential liver failure? At least it's real and you'd get some fresh air???
