Don't get me wrong, I love him to bits but the schoolboy humour (at the age of 54) is getting wearing. We are two matches into the Euro 2012 'feast' of indifferent footy and if he says 'Arshavin' (with a wink) once more I will deck him. Somehow. Come on, it is neither big or funny. I thank whoever that the vuvuzuela has disappeared but I suspect the vuvuprat is back. DD

    I don't think the school boy or girl humour ever really goes away, it's quite nice to still have a bit of sillyness what ever your age.

    But there is something for using a joke limitedly (don't even know if thats a word but sounds good) before it gets annoying :lol:

    Hey DD. My husband is a mad footie fan and i must admit, i usually dont mind it myself, However, its the endless waffle before and after the actual game that drives me mental. Why oh why do they have to analise every single detail? eh?

    I'm enjoying these games, hurrah for Greece, they need help, and they need it quick. They will need a whip round to get back home. Alanthemanc

    I've actually managed to miss it all so far thanks to visitors and rugby league.

    As far as I can see there's nowt to report but hey, that's never stopped anyone before, has it? :lol: I'm making an educated guess that there will be more matches today - yawn. Bang goes our afternoon up the Plump Feline - note I said 'our' afternoon. :wink: DD

    Why is football the dinosaur of the sporting world? We can’t we have technology? We’d rather splutter and fume about a disallowed goal that clearly crossed the line or an allowed one that didn’t. We can’t even use it retrospectively to prove whether or not a striker dived and thus ban him for a game or two to discourage him from doing it again, or to see if a defender did trip him/haul him down and so ban the defender instead. We can’t change an offside rule that has been proved to be unpoliceable because the assistant ref’s eyes can’t focus on two places at once. Barmy.
