    What effort. Yesterday - Sale Sharks v Munster. Make soccer players look like the limp wristed brigade.

    RE: football players you mean, not soccer players

    I was just half way through a post to tell him that when we had a 15 minute power cut.

    It's just like Rugby Football got shortened to Rugger. Association Football got called soccer. It was originally a Public School term.

    In the 50's and early 60's it was quite common for the game to be called soccer.
    I don't mind calling it soccer at least it differentiates our game from Rugby, American, Aussie rules, Gailic (sic) and other forms of football.
