But they're just boys being boys aren't they? It's ok if just a few peg out innit?

Lets have The Six Nations Tiddlywinks Competition instead and whilst we are at it question the amount of deaths in Soccer over the years.
Quite a fomidable list and suprisingly so many cardiac related fatalities. That's just the players. How many fatalities in the stands?

"But they're just boys being boys aren't they?" No. They are boys/men following a passion.

They all turn out so they can hurt someone without being seen. They think they can get away with it. The family friendly game my armpit.

P#*%-poor thread attempting to inflame, nothing more.
How many die each year as a result of just ATTENDING a football match?
Take your wife and kids to a rugby match, then a Premiership match and see which has a ‘friendly’ atmosphere.
Rugby is infinitely more family friendly than kiss ball.

My father and my father-in-law both died whilst sitting in a chair. I didn't realise how dangerous it is.

Countering 10CS’s anti-rugby jibe, must’ve gone over your head, T.
Or are you still smarting from the ‘there’s no more racism in football and everyone on the terraces is an angel’ thread some weeks back?

[spathiphyllum]

Ironic cus the biggest threat to men is suicide.

Lots of people die on the loo - so constipation rules OK.

By having a jibe at football.
I managed to go to football games for a long, long time without getting into a fight...It's not as difficult as you would imagine.
