Just want to point out that we the English invented the sport and called it football long before American football was born. STOP calling it SOCCER :evil:
Rant over
I am a glory hunting prawn sandwich munching United support and have been since the golden years of the 1970's
In relation to the above your right it is annoying when its called soccer, it just doesnt sound right but even that it an English name for the game and was used to differentiate it from Rugby football by toffee nosed University types in the late 1800s. I just cannot use it myself
To right Ferrit!!!!
Really gets up my nose!!!!!!!! :evil:
Apologies to any Yanks in advance but it was hardly a flash of genius when you stole the name, put American in front of it and hey presto 'American Football' To top it all off your sport is a bastardised version of another English sport: Rugby.
