you've clearly never met with or dealt
With my other half so I’ll let you have another guess

Watching the Olympic cycling road race, unbelievable efforts.
First across the line was in just over six hours, and many of the competitors have just finished the Tour de France!
My irritation is this ................................. footballers get tired when they have to play twice a week.
Twice a week is three hours of mostly jogging, not six hours, non-stop in extreme heat.
They really do boil my urine.

It’s different levels of fitness though is it

Footballers play that level of sport for nearly 11 months of the year. And it’s not just “three hours of jogging” a week

I don’t think you can ever compare fitness levels between sports.

Easy done when they're full of PEDs!

Losing the top of my middle left finger, caught between a bit of glass and window frame ??

Over-excitable commentators!

But I don't think they enjoy it as they are not holding up any traffic ?

In most matches the ball is only active for just over 60 minutes.
If players are 'jogging' just half that time, it's 60 minutes of intense football over two games.
I know most elite cyclists are built for stamina, but come on, footballers are a little bit delicate, do you not agree?
A cyclist can dislocate a shoulder, have it put back in, finish the rest of the TdF and not complain.
A footballer twists his sock, squeals like a stuck pig and rolls on the floor for two minutes.
That's what irritates me, please allow me that, it's what this thread is for!

Feigning injury is an irritation - that’s hugely different to fatigue within various sports

Fitness levels of players in various sports ?‍ And if I’d they only play 2 games a week they also train regularly throughout the whole year. 90 minutes of football at the highest level is very intense both physically and mentally

Just imagine how bad it must be for some people to travel thousands of miles, risking their life quite literally, to come here....

Yeah, France is a horrible place.

Not being able to play in the annual old boys v current team pre-season game this morning. Although my knees will be happy about it in the morning.

Going into work at 4.20am to sort a few bits, getting home for 6.30 and back to bed. Climb in bed - call out. Brilliant. Don’t like sleep me.

Indeed…it is nobody’s business how you feel and to tell you what you should or shouldn’t be feeling. If you are irritated by something then you are irritated by it - end of ??

That said…now see that thing that irritates you? Perhaps I can help you…??
