I have no interest in football. When I was at school in the early 70s the football guys were
a violent lot. Their weapon of choice was the Stanley knife so they could maim and slash
opponent's faces without killing them. The football lads at school attacked the coach of
a rival team from another school with the fire axes from the walls of the school.
It has always pleased me when England and English teams are knocked out in the early
stages of tournaments so the English fans do not go abroad to be violent in other countries.
The news reporting of the girls matches showed a carnival atmosphere everywhere and
correct me if I'm wrong, but there seemed to be no fan segregation ?
For the first time ever I watched a football match and had a beer.
I understood the humour of the car park joke. I was having a go at the obscenely overpaid
professional football tossers (sorry players)
