Hoofball????

1 January 2013

I for one quite like hoofball......

Spraying the ball around the field with a mixture of short and long passes might look pretty, but in the end only has the aim of getting the ball up the field in order to score.........

Therefore, what's wrong with bypassing all of this nonsense and punting the ball up the field to the strikers who can then score or have the midfield running through to score........surely this saves time and allows you to score more goals???

Because, dear Brian, that 9 times out of 10, the ball comes back to be defended again

Simple observation and the ability to count. However - each to his own. You enjoy it if you can.

Statistics or no, it's why decent football teams don't play hoofball

Or alternatively you could play football, keep possession and score six 😉

Pah. Six is for teams that aren't good enough to get seven.

Brian, completely agree with your article mate. Shame there's quite a few thickos that don't get it. Hoofball is the way forward!
