Or even 4pm tomorrow? I refer, of course, to the start of the Premier League football season. For me as a Spur, it will be 12.45pm, glued to Radio5Live as we hope to catch Man City before they get their expensive act together. If we win, I shall take more than a passing interest in the other matches. If we lose, I shall have a football sulk. Come on you Lilywhites! Reply to this message | Report message

At work from late morning. Never got into footy, discouraged at school where rugby was the game. Last edited by: gordonbennet on Sat 14 Aug 10 at 09:14 Reply to this message | Report message       1

But the footy season started last week, and a month too early if you ask me, August should be reserved for cricket alone. Reply to this message | Report message       1

I intend to watch the Tottenham game on the telly - 11.45pm here in NZ is about the time that the newborn wakes up for his nightly feed n' wind session... I like my footy but am also starting to think that the season goes on too long and it's becoming overkill. The World Cup was a big anticlimax I thought.

Absolutely anything that has nothing to do with the ridiculously-titled 'beautiful game'. I'd rather eat my own entrails that watch the multi-million pound morons. Reply to this message | Report message       1

Hard to see why managing to get paid tens of thousands per week for playing a game you love means that you are a moron. Quite the opposite really. Reply to this message | Report message       2

A bit of manly hugging, and kissing the badge on your shirt doesn't mean you love the game. It is perfectly possible to be pretty thick and very rich and the Premier League tends to prove this. If they weren't paid loads of money they'd find something else to "Love". Perhaps their team mates lady friends?

These daysthe season never actually seems to finish, and not just cos of the World Cup; if it isn't that it's any one of the seemingly never-ending Champions Champions League Super-Cup Knockout etc etc etc. Reply to this message | Report message

My 3 big brothers used to take me to cee' the Arsenal & Millwall, I was even 'away' at Luton once when the ne'er do wells ripped up all the seats and we all got locked in the stand, I like to watch a good Man U game now and again but my sport is heavyweight boxing really, but I ain't paying Murdoch for it. So R sen all is a swear word now :) corrected for you Last edited by: Webmaster on Mon 16 Aug 10 at 21:26 Reply to this message | Report message

Like Iffy, I'll have the wireless on, listening to Man City put a shedful in Spur's goalmouth. I'll be in the workshop, I've got 10 sets of railway points to wire up. Just had the main bedroom plastered by SIL so I'm using the excuse of 'it's not dry enough yet ' not to do any more in there 'til next week. Ted Reply to this message | Report message

I'm a lifelong Liverpool supporter but unfortunately I'm working tomorrow so I can't watch the match. Even more unfortunately, I'm on the number 17 which goes right by Anfield, just as the match finishes. On my last trip. So not only will I not be able to watch, or even listen to the match I'll finish work late because of it! Reply to this message | Report message

Lets hope your points wiring skills are better than your football predictions. Turned out to be an empty shed. Reply to this message | Report message

Pah! >>Never got into footy, discouraged at school where rugby was the game.<< Carthorses!! The Thouroghbreds kicked off today, Blackpool (newcomers since 1971) won 4-0, yay! and Chelsea ;-) taught the "YO-YO`S" a lesson at 6-0! However, i take my hat off to the chap who was seriously hurt in the Leeds -Castleford game, any body that takes that kind of injury in the name of sport, deserves applauding!! - join ranks with Petr Chech and Carlo Cudicini (Chelsea)!! Well Done! Reply to this message | Report message

I know I speak for almost everyone here when I say that with the world cup over for another four years, one can sink back into one's normal attitude of scornful indifference to soccer and all its beings and doings. Who cares if Hottenham Totspur have wheels on their houses or Millwall supporters are all flamboyant drag queens? I certainly don't. Reply to this message | Report message
