( nicked off twtd !)
He looks so assured on the ball it’s hard to believe he’s just 18yrs old. This game looks light years from the prima donas who strut around the pitch today . And as the twtd poster states , no shirt advertising , no surrounding the red, no diving by the players, just a good old fashioned honest game . God how I hate the “ modern” money ruined game we have today !
Anyway, thought you guys would like to see it!
Nice Town shirt too

Surrounding the ref is the single thing that pìsses me off the most. You don't get that in rugby or cricket.
I even see local U12's and U14's etc arguing with the ref nowadays as its all learnt behaviour that has been normalised.
It would be such an easy thing to stop if they wanted to as well. Automatic cards.
