Off Topic This Country is killing sport in schools

I have to be honest and dismayed at the way this country is turning our kids into namby pambies when it comes to learning and playing sport. Some schools have already Banned heading the ball in football, banned tackling in rugby and bowling underhand in cricket.....When i was a lad i loved playing rugby by the same rules as grown ups and yes i got hurt sometimes but that was all part of the game....This to me will ruin children's abilities of growing up and their attitude towards playing sport........PC gone mad....just my opinion...

 

You're behind the times Dai. Sport in schools died 20 years ago

 

Along with discipline

 

Not in secondary schools in Wales they haven't






Yet

 

They will soon valley......There are no winners or losers in a lot of school today.......you wont be able to call Boys Boys and Girls Girls soon.........What is that all about? And dont start me on smacking children when they deserve it.....

 

I loved cricket season. Bowling fast as I could at some fat fecker who had smashed me into the mud all season playing chase the egg.

Rugby , rugby , fecking rugby. Next to no chance of playing football in the school I went to.

Embarrassing - spot the fat kids - front row , big but slightly less fat the rest of the forwards. Everyone else who were also good at football the backs. Stupid sport.

 

It will be interesting to see the results of the links between heading a football and dementia.

 

I take it you were the kid that got picked last at rugby then?

 

You were punished if you tried to shirk sport in my day.....

 

Times were tough in schools post war I bet Dai.?

 

Discipline meant something in my day.....The kids today have the upper hand now and the country is in a mess because of it....

 

You can blame Cherrie Blair and all of the PC tree huggers for that.
