Plenty of bad football
And so the EPL is coming around again with all the attendant ooh
and ahhs coming around too.
Then well have all these Brit wannabees, wearing their favorite
team colors parading them as if they were really from West Ham or
Tottenham, rubbing shoulders with them white guys at the pubs and
watering holes as if that would make them more Brit or justify
their attention to the football even more.
I was having a drink in a pub quietly on my own, when an English
guy come to me and starts questioning me on the local madness for
English football.
He says these things
1) hed prefer live football to televised anytime
2) That to support our local teams because thats what football is
all about-its local
3) That we dont really deserve to support the English teams cos
were not local-ie we were not born there and that many many
Singapore fans of English football pick their clubs because they
were successful at the of time of selection.
4) That if we the local fans were to go to say West Ham ( he is a
west ham fan) and say proudly that youre a west ham fan, theyd
tell you to go f**k off because you were not born there.
And the worst part is they dont even play good football ( except
for Man U and Arsenal)
Me and my friend counted the average number of passes each of the
top teams made (before they gave up the ball) and they come up
woefully short.
Except for Man U and Arsenal, the rest can hardly hold on to the
ball. Is this football?
I guess, in the end, in the final analysis, only the women have a
real good reason for watching the EPL-eye candy.
