What's with all the football?
Nah, I don't mind really, but there are other sports in Norfolk you know.
For example, the World Assosiation(sp?) of Wrestling, whose next academy show in Cossesty(sp?) is on 6th April, their next show after that (that I know of) is on 27th April at the Marina Centre in Great Yarmouth.
Does anyone else know of any other sports that don't get mentioned on, or have very few mentions on here?

Hi DarkPlaygirl
I have tried to bring all sports as a thread. I thought that it would make things alot easyer to look back on one thread, instead of looking all over the forum for an answer.
However sadly. There does not seem to be many postings here. I was a bit suprised about that.
Did you get your name from the Nightwish album Dark Passion Play...............No I guess not......Giggle........Oh well I love the band Nightwish.
I'm off now. Back to the EDP Spooky Norfolk Website. Ghosty Forum
Speak soon byeeeeee.
Best wishes
Eddie
LOL.........I loved that answer Robert. Nice one.
Oh where would Norman Hunter be in this day & age of football.......TUT....On the bench I guess. After being sent off every game he played. Giggle.
I think that todays football is not worth watching. So Mamby Pamby.............Compeared to yester years. A bad foul in todays football, would have been a sunday picknic in the 50s 60s & 70s.......... Oh Its True, Its True, Its Darn True.......I slightly changed that last part DarkPlaygirl. I didnt think that Curts saying would get past our wonderful Mods.
I used to love the WWF-WWE wrestling. But stoped watching it, after SKY in all their wisdom made every main event, pay per view. I pay too much for satalite TV as it is.
Just a thought. I wonder if every main event wrestling bout is now on You Tube. Just after the event. That would get me back into wrestling, if it was.
As it is. I will settle for the good old F1 racing.
Hi Eddie,
I agree, I wish there were more people posting on here too.
As for my name, no it's not from the Nightwish Dark Passion Play album.
My buddy Sam Knee is the manager for a tag team known as The Devils Playboys, so its sort of from them.
Might see you on the other forums too
laters,

I feel sport of today, is not geared to days of the past, in so much as watching a sports persons skill
F1 Racing is run by computers, Football is lacking is skilled dribbling and good ball control, instead decking a player to get the ball is the order of the day, or shirt pulling and countless other fouls......The skill of deceiving the ref mainly for a penalty seems the skill in many of todays games. And the must win at all cost in the top flight teams of the prem.with a few yellow cards and a red one along the way if required during a match.
Team sports just seem bias in highlighting superstars to create interest in crowd pulling and increased profits.
Individual sports Golf, Snooker and Darts for example, the skill is there for all to see and appreciate without question and no excuses to blame someone else for failure.
The sport of football is no longer there, 30 years ago football rode supreme in skill and entertainment, then you hoped your team would win and teams were more equal, now top flight teams are expected to win like a production line of acheivements. Now victories are not earned in the spirit of the game, but victory is now bought with countless millions ploughed into a team.
The top 10 in the prem now control the football league, and the likes of Norwich have next to zero chance of equaling them in status or financial impact, and as the present system stands.....never will.
Football is no longer a sport but a financial motivated money factory for top prem teams...

Thats why I dont watch it.
I used to (couldn't escape football, grew up with Manchester United fans), but stopped about 5 years ago
TV reporting tickets for MU in Russia selling for £1400, and the cost of going £1100, plus all the fuss of trying to getting a visa.......... You have got to be a complete nutter to even consider thinking about going.......
No football match to me is worth all that aggrovation and cost.
