Re: Your Greatest FA Cup Final Ever.
You just can’t accept that someone has an opinion that is different to yours, can you?
It is gratifying to learn that you can predict what someone would or would not be able to do. Try applying your crystal ball knowledge to the Lottery numbers.
Harking on about something means continually going on about it. I have mention once that maybe the FA, Football League and FIFA should consider using technology to determine the outcome of ‘incidents’ in a game.
But then why not twist the reality to suit your puerile case. It’s par for the course. Why do you always turn things into a competition? An opinion is an opinion and if based on fact there is no right or wrong, just different.
Back in the late forties and early fifties the First Division (what is today the Premier League) players played fewer games than today’s lot. There were league matches and the FA Cup and for the few, international matches and that was it.
Some time ago I put a stopwatch on a Premier League match to see how long the ball was actually in play. The result was a bit less than 60 minutes. So according to you during the other 30 minutes the players were all running around. Get real! They were stood around or positioning themselves waiting for the ball to be put back into play.
Back in the fifties in the First Division, action was to all intents and purposes, non-stop attacking football. You only get that in bits and pieces today in general, although there have been exceptions.
So grow up and learn the art of discussion.
