I salute the bravery of the head of Epping Primary School when banning the so-called ‘beautiful game’ simply because it’s nothing of the sort.

Today’s game is made up of greed-ridden playboys, who will play for any team, while managers play transfer games for the most money.

As a sport, it’s now a complete fake.
