So I think you shouldn't be allowed to play for a team unless you are from there...So can only play for Liverpool if you are from there. Now that would make the game far more interesting and maybe they should only get paid it they win other wise they get minimum wage...Now that should make them try harder.

Remeber when I played as a lad I used to play all afternoon With my mates...on a rough all piece of grass...get dead legs, Chinese burns and never had cramp or feel on the ground like I had been shot.

Let's put it into something we all understand, I used to tear everywhere in my XR2, heel n to, handbrake turns, drifting/ or rather sliding sideways through lights, around roundabouts, so why aren't I driving in an F1 team. It looks **** easy. Computer does everything via a man sat on wall. All you have to do is point the thing.

Will never happen I'm afraid. Closest example I can think of is the Celtic team that won numerous championships and the old European cup with players all born in a 15 radius of each other.

I remember back in the day at school, all Wanderers fans, one day the PE teacher says BWFC striker Wayne Foster would be coming to school to show us a thing or two etc, and we were laughing cos he was shįt, perennial sub (only one in those days) and we'd show HIM a thing or two.

Anyway. the day comes and he totally wiped the floor with us, a football genius compared to us lot.

Yet come Saturday he was brought on as sub and was shįt again. it's all relative, football players now are as fit as fook, so much so it can affect their health, look at all the heart attacks on the pitch we've seen recent years.

I know Dave...Footballers are fit .(not in a sexual way before anyone says).. I couldn’t do it...but I would have a bloody good go for the millions they get paid.
