Ive been pondering this for a while ..... Why is it that England is recognised as the country that gave the world soccer and in all that time, as a nation we have only ever won one major trophy ?
Its not as tho soccer isn't pushed through schools, parks, in fact anywhere with a bit of green in the u.k you can bet your bottom dollar, that someone will be kicking a football around.
I also find it amazing that American with their " homegrown " sports,(baseball,basketball grid iron football ) rule the world in these sports and its not as thou they are the only country that plays these particular games.
And please dont say its down to the pros being overpaid, the top flight leagues haven't always been drowning in money.
