Why do people "hate" football (soccer)?

[Munro_Mick]

You're on the football australia board now, right? You may also wish to google "FFA" and tell me what it stands for.

and what's the "AF" in "AFL" stand for?

infact, the "F" in "VFL", "SANFL", "WAFL", etc, etc, etc.

Given that until 6 or 7 years ago, the "NSL" was the top body of soccer in this country, then, it's a bit rich for the FFA (with their flagship "SOCCERoos") to go asserting this sectarian attitude.

And yet you're still broke!

Any response to the rest of my earlier post? Or have you backed away from your wild generalisations?

Broke because we pay the $ANFL $4 million a year! It's well documented BY THE $ANFL that over the next 3 years (from 2011, 2012, 2013) they will make $12 million off of us. If we had independence we would not be broke at all. Are you even a Crows fan or just a soccer troll? Because even Crows fans would know that.

And yeah there would have been many arrests here pretty much every time they play MV really. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YYgnPCT7VbA

OK, now it's generating into name-calling without any real debate I think we'll stick a fork in it.

Cheers.
