    Do you mean listen to? If so no its not your age, its more likely your generation because when I was a young un I used to love listening to football on the radio especially on Tuesday / Wednesday nights in bed on a little transistor radio but aside from the Match of the day, the FA and European Cup final and Midweek sports special there was no domestic football on television. This tune really takes me back http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0q3IIwoIl4Q&feature=related

    This thread is a prime example of why Hemsworth has every right to get the monk on and mouth off every now and again.

    I used to love listening to the radio in the '70's

    For the live football, then watching the highlights later on Sportsnight With Coleman.

    Haha Dyson. It's ok.

    Think it would be quite sad if an adult couldn't take a bit of stick or criticism, wouldn't it?

    I'll certainly not be crying about it for sure.

    Good attitude. And yes it is your age because i too struggle to gwt into it on the radio. I think its because these days we have so much technology that listening on the internet using only one sense doesnt have the same effect.

    In fact I find football on TV boring most of the time because it doesnt come close to the feeling of actually being at a game.

    I always turn the volume down on sky games and put radio 5 on so I don't have to listen to that little Manc lovely person Gary Neville.
