Just watched most of the Bayern v Madrid first-half, so pathetic, they're falling over from the slightest touch, how can you watch this rubbish game on a regular basis?!!!!!!!

By turning on a television set and tuning it to the appropriate channel. You've clearly managed it yourself so I don't know why you felt the need to ask.

Is that better for you, pedant, haha?

[CherryPie]

Much better thanks

The diving in professional football is ridiculous. Rugby might not be free of 'simulation' but it's still a whole lot better than soccer. The very fact that players 'win' penalties in that game says it all. A penalty should be something that happens when a player is fouled in the penalty area, not when a player exaggerates any slight contact so that the referee thinks they've been fouled.

The championship is a shade more honest to watch so catch the odd game of my mighty whites but in general the game is painful to watch now.

Terrible game that soccer. No wonder nobody anywhere watches it and it just struggles along.

The lower leagues such as the Championship do tend to be a little more honest and have less in common with the billionaires playthings in the Premier League. As a Bolton fan I'll be watching a bit more of the Championship come August.

I watch quite a few games of football because I take an interest in a lot of sports but I always find myself fed up with the blatant cheating and disrespect that you see in almost every game.
