Blackbriar 8,569 Posted June 9, 2018 Report Share Posted June 9, 2018 Winter break ? Do the little dears get tired out with all that running around ? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jiggy 3,209 Posted June 9, 2018 Report Share Posted June 9, 2018 It might help England in the world cup years if they are not going in suffering from fatigue. I don't think it will matter to the Irish as much as they won't have a strong enough squad to win anyway. Plenty of heart but not enough talent. England had enough talent the last few decades to win more than 1 World Cup in 52 years. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ChrisJones 7,975 Posted June 9, 2018 Report Share Posted June 9, 2018 I get tired in winter too! I'll see if my boss will let me have a break to help with my productivity! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Fair one, mate but it's a tough sell. I can just imagine how the lads serving in the Gulf are getting ready to collectively bargain for their winter break too! 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

But footballers cant help what they get paid and they certainly ain't going to turn it down lol What makes me laugh over here is when fat, overweight smokers sit drinking bitter in pubs and moan about a footballer being a fanny over a tackle that was a potential leg breaker when they are out of breath walking to go stand outside for a fag lol I cant remember were I read it but its thought nearly 88% of the whole world's population has kicked a football at some point......cant be that boring on them figure's 3 Absolutely and it's funny as f*ck! Personally, I say good on them. If you've found a way to make a decent coin and you're able to increase that whilst simultaneously decreasing your workload, even better. Just don't expect me to give any more of a sh*t than it takes to type it out! The one that really makes me laugh is the NFL. Black players kneeling during the national anthem. They're taking a stand against inequality whilst making millions in an industry that makes them more unequal than most athletes on the planet. Earn your money and crack on but I give as much of a sh*t as they do about me walking around in 116º heat wearing 25lbs of body armour and driving around in a truck where the A/C packed in at the beginning of the shift and if I wring my underpants out every 15 minutes I can fill my colleagues water bottle and he'll be too f*ck*ng exhausted to notice! 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
