If you can't stand the football you now have your very own thread in which to talk about shoes or veggie-burgers or whatever else it is you want to talk about...

What if you're indifferent about the whole thing? :oops:

Equal rights for the indifferent! :lol:

A bunch of grown men kicking a bladder around a field for 90 minutes, whilst simultaneously getting paid more than your average A&E Doctor will see in his lifetime? What's not to hate?

I don't like soccer...it's just a sport for wussies who can't handle rugby.

Also, given that even in the 1800's William Webb Ellis was bored enough to invent rugby during a football match...it says it all doesn't it.

I only watch international tournaments, and even then don't go out of my way to do so. So a few games every couple of years isn't too bad.

Listen, I didn't spend all day drawing up protest plans only for you to change the thread title... ;)

If there was more TV progs worth watching, I'd consider getting upset about the World Cup :lol:

:lol: my daughter says a similar thing when I watch F1 - grown men racing around and around and around for 2 hours and that’s entertaining how?

But at the end of the race someone does win - a lot of football matches end 0-0 !

I used to be an avid footy fan...

... but these days I just can't be bothered with it.

QFT.

Looks like I have an excuse to get hammered/stoned off my face though up at my mate's house. He's having a party of sorts, where he's invited people round to watch the Cup with him. I might suddenly take a liking to football when booze is free... :)

I suppose it'll make a nice change from throwing yourself round on a bike and breaking various bones, etc. ;) :P :lol: :etc:

Don't worry, I'll probably find a way to hurt myself when I'm sat on a sofa. Cushions of death maybe? :P
