Just went for a meal and chatted to a great Cypriot. He had an interesting thought as we discussed how footballers were massively overpaid.

In Roman times Gladiators were poor and were watched by the wealthy...

Now the footballers are rich and watched by the.... less well off

Just an interesting thought...

I thought the concenus was that the original working class fan has been priced out of going to watch nowadays

Its a silly sport being a gladiator and if they are not careful someone will get hurt.

Playing against Suarez can result in injury.

I thought Roy Keane made the point well when he talked about dire atmosphere and that lot in directors boxes being the Prawn sandwich brigade.

Who ate all the Prawn sandwiches does'nt quite have the same ring to it as Who ate all the pies.

No doubt the Gladiator's had more than Three Lions to contend with.

They should release a lion onto the pitch at a random time.

Would make it much more interesting.
