Stud Farce

Apparently a school in Bexley, South-East London, has decided to ban it’s pupils from wearing football boots with studs because they are too dangerous.

Incredibly they are making the poor kids wear pumps (plimsolls) instead - beacuse skating around in mud like a spider on rolerskates is much less likey to crack legs in half.

Wearing footy boots as a kid was great, giving you a chance to feel like you really are Steven Gerrard or whoever… (in fact it’s still pretty good when you’re 28…)

Let’s face it football is a contact sport, and therefore dangerous - you may as well ban the whole bloody thing.

Maybe I shouldn’t have said that…
