FabSwingers.com forum: am I the only man who couldn't give a rat's ass about football?

Sheffield

Football bores me... I don't mind playing it but I get absolutely nothing out of watching it.... I've never been much of a spectator or a follower.

My mates rib me and call me 'gay' because I'm not a fan. Hmmm ok so I'm a 'gay' because I don't have an obsession with a group of guys in shorts and on a weekend I don't like to join other men in standing together to watch said men in shorts and singing in harmony about how much we love these men, and when their boys lose they go home sulk and deny their wives sex..... yes sure I'm the gay.

Oh and as for Fergie..... Fergie can fuck off.

Never cared for football, even remotely - well, unless I'm using the remote to change channel.

No Mr B has no interest in watching football or most sports.

The only thing he is an avid follower of is F1.

This doesn't surprise me really, there isn't any decent football in Sheffield to watch anyway. They have two clubs who have massively underachieved in recent years.

Nowt wrong with not being interested in football, mind you if OP is interested in netball I'd be worried!! lol

yes I love sports. I used to play ice hockey at a pretty decent level and I did mma until I got smashed up. Still do boxing but don't compete anymore due to getting smashed up doing mma haha.

I even used to play football and cricket.

....I just don't see what the fuss is about watching someone else do something and getting so worked up about it. I've seen grown men cry over it.

I agree with the part about fergie, I hate the fact we're going to have to endure the same thing again when he dies!

I've always been a football fan but I would go as far as saying 98% of football played at all levels is horribly boring.

My enthusiasm has definitely faded recently. I used to be a season ticket holder but now I don't attend many matches and I don't miss it.

Massively expensive for mediocre entertainment.

Liar!

I'm a massive football fan. Love watching, talking and most of all playing the beautiful game. I play for an amateur side and have sometimes missed key games for a kick-off of my own.

Most of the time, people don't get it so they don't like it but I think it's the same with most sports. I find golf dull but would love to have a go!

I also have found that some people who are not keen on sports usually don't play any sports which doesn't help.

My mum and dad are both disinterested in any sport and neither myself or my sister were encouraged to take part t school.

As for watching, as soon as anything vaguely sporting came on the TV, over it went to another channel.

My cousin on the other hand is footie mad - as were his dad and big brother - to the degree of that mentioned above, crying when his team lose etc

It's a matter of choice.....I would hazard a guess that there is probably an equal split between people interested and not interested in football threads. Some of them interest me and some don't.

I get more bored of the regular ones that come around and especially posters that use the word 'discuss' at the end of their post. I thought that was the idea of posting a thread without stating the 'bleedin' obvious'.

Funnily enough a friends father was a professional footballer and tried to ram football down the neck of all three of his sons. Not one of them is interested in the game or in the case of two of them sport in general

See I am the opposite, I grew up in sporting household where one sport or another was constantly on the tv.

If it wasn't on the tv then I was dragged around to either watch my brother play various sports or other family members.

Bored me silly and I couldn't wait to get a place of my own so I could ban it.

God job Mr B doesn't like watching sport or I would have traded him in by now.

But there is a "fuss."

You said you played ice hockey at a decent level so fans come to games. Would I be classed as a moron simply because I didn't see what all the fuss was about? Especially as the majority of team sports are based on around the same overriding principle: Get the ball in the goal. Whether it's a hoop, net or massive space on the floor.

I think people get annoyed because it has such a dominant presence in the UK that it's hard to avoid.

It's pretty easy to avoid Ice Hockey.

football is a disgraceful sport. I have sons who are all sporty and I am a coach of mini rugby. rugby teaches the boys discipline, sportsmanship and importantly respect for the referee. my sons also play soccer and I have watched coaches coaching the boys how best to yap at the ref, when to fall down and claim a foul, to run up to the ref, to claim for every throw in etc etc etc.

to every child this is now second nature as they watch the antics of spoiled over paid primadonnas prancing about on sky tv. I used to follow Liverpool until I watched suarez. the pool used to be what is good about football and Englishmen - fairness, hardness, professional and sporting.

suarez and Liverpool, despite his undoubted skill is a disgrace and an embarrassment to any 'sports' fan

I always laugh when people put rugby up as some sort of game of gentlemen. There has been far worse and nasty gamesmanship in rugby than in football. Eye gouging - not much sportmanship going on there is it?. Faking blood injuries?.

And the thing that really winds me up is the "we played well" bit, We??? No it's They, not We, you just watched on the TV! "

Hull KR and Hull fans clashed a few years ago on the pitch after a rugby league game. So not just football fans!.

The game itself bores me so no, i have zero interest in it.

Some 'fans' are simply filth though. I support Sale Sharks Rugby Union club and in the past have been threatened and spat at by Stockport County fans on the way to the ground.

At least at a Rugby game we are allowed to drink and mix with the opposing fans rather than penned in and treated like dogs.

I cannot stand it , Mrs J doesn't mind watching it.

It just annoys me that there is the presumption that as a bloke I should find it fascinating and support someone or thing .

I don't

I used to have a job that took me round lots of factories. I've lost count of the number of times the production line blokes started chatting as I worked and it was pretty much always "so what team do you follow?" or "did you catch the Villa game?". As soon as I said I don't do football at all they got this confused look on their face and were stuck for anything else to talk about.

before i tell this story its not anti gay or anti bi or out like that as I truly am a firm beliver in what ever makes you happy an its not hurting any 1 then each to their own. I just hope you get a giggle out of it as i did at the time so here gos.... a cuple of yrs ago I was driving home after a night shift stuck on that car park whats its name are yes the m61 listening to the morning drible on the radio as you do an the dj said sumthing about some servay about what make the perfect man acourding to wemen an in the top 3 was not like football to whitch he said something along the lines of if a bloke doesent like football he must be gay (my words not his) so I think im not having that an txted in that I hated football but i was far from gay next thing my phone rang an as iv a hands free

I answerd. it was the radio station id txt asking if I fancyed going on air an explain why I didn't like the game so I said I would an then was passed on to dj who asked the question why. so I explained although I dident like football it far from made me gay an posibly the opposite could be far more likely in that there are 20odd blokes in their tight little shorts an with their pritty hair doos an designer boots. they all run around chasing a ball all trying to get it in the net thing an when they do they all jump in to each others arms swopping spit an hugging and then when its all over the wistle blows and each team all runs off to jump in a great big buble bath together......I mean come on hes calling me gay.....I think not

My interest in football extends from a footballer's feet to his waist, and none of that interest is on his ability to kick a ball!

But your still talking bollocks!. Did you ever see the hillsborough tragedy?where fellow liverpool fans used advertising boards as makeshift stretchers to help ferry the injured, while the police were like rabbits in the headlights.

Football's an easy target to slag off, but the people who slag it off don't know about some of the excellent community work clubs do like Millwall and Charlton or the charity work they do.

"Football bores me... I don't mind playing it but I get absolutely nothing out of watching it.... I've never been much of a spectator or a follower.

Oh and as for Fergie..... Fergie can fuck off.

Disclaimer: nothing wrong with being a gay, my mates are fuckwits. "

It really is boring to watch. I have 3 brothers and none of us watch or play it. I think it stems from it being expected that we would like it and being forced to play it (and being shit at it). PE teachers had a lot to answer for. But because they were PE teachers...they didn't know the answers.

Nearly forgot the old saying (apologies to proper teachers for this):-

Those that can, do.

Those that can't, teach.

Those that can't teach, teach PE.

I'd be a hypocrit* if i said i hated it all, luv the big events, cup finals, world cups.

But i soon get very political about it all as a money generating thing, in this current climate, people being paid thousands of pounds per week to justify their so called brilliance?

While the, just started work at McDonalds gets paid minimum wage but if she sticks in,her hourly rate will go up by 20p???

People who reach the top of their professions will always be top earners...if the girl working at McDonalds reached the top of her profession she too would be earning thousands a week.

I do so enjoy the awkward silences between these lines of dialogue when you meet the average "bloke".

"see the game last night"?

"No".

"who do you support then"?

Nobody"

Oh your into rugby/cricket then"?

No.

"oh....are you gay then"?

No....I was shagging your wife whilst you were at the match".

Whether it's what we call football, or what you call football (& we in the States know as soccer) - No interest; a time waster of modern day gladiators.
