Why do you Englanders insist on calling it football when in most of the world, particularly in places where they still play the game well, it is properly referred to as futbol?
Come on, get off your pompous butts and call the game what it is called in the rest of the world.

I find that a bit strange too coming from a nation ( Scotland ) where the men dress up in skirts

American's on the other hand play an inferior brand of rugby, complete with all kinds of protective equpiment, major knee injuries, and spinal injuries so severe, many of them never walk again. European sports are superior! 😏
