    Balls

    Sorry Kaip and Rocket, not quite what you were expecting.

    What's everyone's opinions on the balls used these days?

    They feckin swerve a bit, unfair advantage to attackers? They also can make players seem a lot better than they are.

    They're ok at the moment i guess, but in ten years time...?
    On the Ning Nang Nong
    Where the Cows go Bong!
    And the Monkeys all say Boo!
    There's a Nong Nang Ning
    Where the trees go Ping!
    And the tea pots Jibber Jabber Joo.
    On the Nong Ning Nang
    All the mice go Clang!
    And you just can't catch 'em when they do!
    So it's Ning Nang Nong!
    Cows go Bong!
    Nong Nang Ning!
    Trees go Ping!
    Nong Ning Nang!
    The mice go clang!
    What a noisy place to belong,
    Is the Ning Nang Ning Nang Nong!!

    To light IMO and that can make it very difficult if it blows to much.

    The balls will keep changing as long as the ball makers makes a lot of money.
    Just believe and you never know what will happen.

    According to Benitez it's important not simply to go out to win but to go out prepared to win, which means players have to put in the same level of work on a daily basis. Anything else is unacceptable.

      I think they favour speculative long range punts and unreasonably favour attackers over goalkeepers.
      .
      Suppose you have a physicist and a sociologist standing at the side of a field, observing a set of events unfolding on the field. The physicist does [describes] it using the terminology of mass and velocity and frequency of radiation and the rest. And the sociologist does it by describing it as a rugby match.



      May the Lord bless this post.

        I think they make for interesting games...comparing, say, a Premiership game at Anfield to a game in the 70s 80s, and the difference in speed and the little amount of time on the ball the players get nowadays - the standard played to now, taking into account the lighter ball (which is surely harder to control first touch wise?) and the factors above, is testament to the skill of footballers nowadays.

        That is a bit jumbled to be honest..try and make sense of it!
