cgksheff Posted October 12, 2011 Share Posted October 12, 2011 Probably not, the Scum is almost as bad as the Fail for making up stories to wind up their readers. It doesn't take two seconds to use the resources at your fingertips to see that this story is factual: http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-shropshire-15255060 .... and that as a result of criticism, the league have decided not to continue with the experiment.

Jeffrey Shaw Posted October 12, 2011 Share Posted October 12, 2011 Maybe 'coming second' in a football match should be as feted as in athletics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big time Posted October 12, 2011 Share Posted October 12, 2011 http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage/news/3864295/Kids-scores-altered-to-avoid-upset.html Anyone else think this is a stupid idea? This is a bit of residual leftie hand wringing syndrome left over from the 13 years of Labour; hopefuly it will fizzle out over time and we can get back to being a country with balls.

Second out of the entire world population is definitely something to celebrate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeffrey Shaw Posted October 15, 2011 Share Posted October 15, 2011 Does athletics involve the entire world population? Now, that is a human race! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
