Enjoyed the France V Paraguay game. Yes, Paraguay took it a bit too far with the dark arts and shithouesery but for the majority of the game the game plan worked. We see similar antics in the lower and non leagues. Media will vilify Paraguay’s antics but it just reinforces why ‘modern football is rubbish’. Game in the higher echelons is too sanitised IMO. Is it a contact sport or not? Game’s gone. Bring back the likes of Chopper Harris and Bites Your Legs Hunter on a field of mud.
Okay, maybe not, but you get the point. It’s a media and advertising circus. Like a bit of shithouesery is a war crime. Ridiculous.
