It's gas though how some people seriously hate the word soccer ... which is why i'd always use it Oh yeah, Man Utd for me! And Sunderland since they're half Irish these days. And my home team which I won't mention.

I always thought the term soccer was derived from Association Football, so i guess if that is true then calling it either soccer or football is cool. As for the game where big guys crush each other, i thought that was rugby league!! The game i think you are talking about Rob, they cant get near enough for all the padding
