All a load of stuff and nonsense - a dreadful waste of money - think of the millions they gives to those idiots that run around for 90 minutes and how we could feed the hungry and shelter the homeless.

Some people moaned about a big mechanical (one-off) spider - so I'm going to moan about the continual evil p*ssing of money down the drain year upon year that is the thing we call football.

Its like the national lottery too - I was in ASDA the other day and watched countless idiots line up to waste their money - not just a pound here or there but 20 pound notes - not for a syndicate - just for themselves - its devilry on a grand scale. Buy a lottery ticket and get SLAVE tattooed on your forehead - or why not get a barcode there instead - would make purchasing the ticket a hell of a lot quicker!!!

OK I'm ready for the stocks...

OOOOhhhhhhh MissGuided whippy

I think the only difference is that tax payers money doesn't pay the footballers' wages or finance the clubs (unless you count the television rights in that, although very few seem to be shown on terrestrial tv these days). I do agree with you on the wages though - they are preposterous.

As for the lottery - I don't do it. I'd rather put the £1 in a jar every week as I "win" more in the long run.

I know where there's a good set of stocks - I've been in them raftl Anyone got any old tomatoes raftl raftl

OK - so the spider was not a good example - I was seeing red (and blue) at the time lol raftl So before anyone else wants to repeat what PJ just said OK I get it so please don't say it again

As I say I could do with some stocks to get a bit of self-control - though its hard to throw tomatoes at one's self... cry

raftl

No need to explain hon - we all have opinions, we don't always agree but as adults (well, some of us raftl ) we should respect each others' rights to have said opinions.

I did say Derby Day splits people - not just in team choice raftl

didn't Everton exist before them (14 years before?)
don't Liverpool play in Everton's old ground?
wasn't Everton a founding member of the Football League in 1888?
