News From The England Football Camp.

Sure Football was invented by English...

Scotland may not be at the World Cup, but the country can at least lay claim to having invented football, following the translation of a book written almost 400 years ago.

In 1633, more than 200 years before the Football Association was formed in England, David Wedderburn, a poet and teacher at Aberdeen Grammar School, described a match in his pocket-sized tome Vocabula.

While there are older descriptions of ball games involving kicking, historians say the Scottish manuscript, written in Latin, is the first to report on players passing the ball forward and attempting to score past a goalkeeper.

No matter how crap England appear to be to knobs who don't know what they're talking about, they're never going to be as weak as the sweaty socks now are they! You lot would have to be playing out of your skins to beat the worst England performance, or hope that we go easy on you to smooth over past injustices as with certain previous encounters.

If it wasn't for a Scotsman there would be no Wembley either.

Eh? Whatever.

But consider this; if it wasn't for the English, the sweaty socks would still be living in caves and/or speaking German. Some respect wouldn't go amiss

Its funny how all these so called football experts on TV never come into the actual football forum. Wonder why? Anyway, as there are already a few England are pish threads going. I do believe its better to sack this. Just as they have done with McClaren.

Closed!
