Now before I begin I would just like to say that I actually don't mind football.

When I was a kid the retinue would be this:
Wake up go to school, play football at break and launch, come home, play football, eat dinner, play football and then go to sleep! It was great, what else could you ask for.

But as I grew older and joined a team and started playing on Saturday mornings, I enjoyed it less (I didn't notice it at the time of course). As I strived to get first team football, to play at my best and impress my coach, I would get knackered and not play it with my mates. Then I started losing interest completely, I would still go training but I wouldn't put as much effort in and so if I didn't get pick for the team I wouldn't go and watch and then I eventually just stopped all together.

My parents didn't put me under pressure, I wasn't pushed by manager, I think I just thought that I wasn't good enough and if I wasn't good enough what was the point in playing.

But I continued to watch and follow my favourite team the Hammers. I cheered every victory and sighed at every loss, but then I as I released West Ham, aren't actually that good and didn't very much trophies. So I began not caring what the scores where and eventually stop caring about football altogether. I mean if they aren't going to win anything what’s the point.

I so came to the conclusion many years later I had changed, but football hadn't it had morphed into something completely different. I stopped playing football cause I thought I wasn't good enough, and if I wasn't good enough to play for Star Of The Sea Boys, then there was no chance in hell of playing for West Ham. If West Ham had as much money as Man United and Arsenal, then they could get the money for the foreigners, but to get the money they needed to win the cups and to win the cups they need the players (you know what I mean). r>
So I don't know if it’s just me but are sports, not only football, getting too competitive. Do you have to be good at something to enjoy it or be aloud to enjoy it? If you do something wrong on the football pitch you aren't comforted you are scowled at and taken off!

So what I think is that people, need to respect each other more in the game to allow people to enjoy it more.
