England have deep problems rooted in the EPL and FA. We are falling behind in ability and were outclassed by the Italians and had to play a defensive game against the French. I am presently resigned to watching England only have the ball 40% of the time, much like my own club team last season who finished 15th in the second tier.

Why the EPL and FA? They allow too many foreign players to play. Why the FA? they've taken the creativity out of the coaching setup by strictly controlling who gets badges and how they have to coach.

Radical change is needed, but we are controlled by prats in suits and the old boys club.

Similar thing happens in portugal, the 2 greatest teams resort to scouting in south america and hiring players from that area. one of the mmanaged to fill entire teams without a single portuguese player for half of the season. Fortunatly the other "not-so-big" club still gets most of its players from national borders, and when you see the portuguese team around 70% of its players played their 16-18/21 in Sporting. Unfortonatly Sporting fails to manage this kids to an extent and sells them for a bargain to what they will become....

My country should not think about Euro2012... there are worser issues: for example banks lend money to football teams but not to honest families. I would ban that sport.

I'm aware of the "PIGS" and noted that you are from Italy. For me this abbreviation is abusive and degrading. I fully understand and agree to your point of view but the way out is not to ban the sport.

Do not ban the sports, ban the banks. They suck everybody dry all over the world.

IMO sports like football are still like opium for some kind of people. They cloud the real problems and serve as a relief valve for personal anger.

you can't ban football and even if that would be feasible, it would solve nothing, you have to fix what's ruining it; society today sucks but banning society is no solution either

let's not get blind: the acceptance as a natural thing, that the industry main standard is making profit, instead of first providing a quality service oriented to the people's benefit, is destroying our quality of life and our hard won rights.

banning every sport won't change that, it will just add to the overwhelming ignorance, unfairness and general futility we live in.
