Does your gf/wife/partner like footy?

[GrandOldTeam]

Simple question really, does your girlfriend like football? and more importantly... do they have a good understanding of it?

She understands it, doesn't like it, but watches it with me when we are on.

 

[Great Dane]

No my wife hates football - and does not understand it at all.

 

[zero]

She doesn't like football but loves Everton....I will watch any old crap on the television as long as they are kicking the pigskin (la liga, serie A, Coca-Cola Championship. etc.)

where as she will only watch the blues and she understands all the rules including offside

Wife, she doesn't like football, daughter likes being taken to EFC of course because of the atmosphere and the fact she used to work there, but she has no understanding whatsoever of the rules a thing mopst women are guiltuy of. In this day and age the odd woman who does know the rules is held up as a paragon of virtue when more often than not they are a pain in the arse always trying to prove men wrong!

Unfortunately my g/f does understand football and she's a red, im sure deep down she's now a bit of a blue now though too, although I cant fully convert her as her father is also a red.

 

[micknick]

My bird hates footbal. She undertsands it and can even explain the offside rule to others but she hates it.

She moans that its always on the TV even though I dont watch it half as much as I'd like to. I pay for the Sky as well!!!!

She loves it. Been a blue longer than I've been alive (she is slightly older than me!). Been to more games than me, better knowledge of Everton (annoyingly), and she is fantastic to boot. Just a shame now we have kids we can't go the match together still till they are slightly older, then I predict I'll be skint buying so many season tickets...

 

[jon_efc]

my ex didnt really like football.. although she would watch it if i was ....

she said she wanted to go the game though... as she loves the atmosphere at the match !!!

she wasnt really a supporter of any team, although i would say, she is blue now !! was going to take her to the europe games... but prob not now lol

No my wife hates football - and does not understand it at all.

Ditto.

 

[Cold Nate]

My wife becomes quickly bored with nearly all sports, but has grown a liking to football - especially in person. Being from canada, she has a general understanding of offsides even...

 

[chicoazul]

My bird doesnt mind it. She gets excited over Scotland games.

 

[TX Bill]

My wife understands it and will watch Everton with me. She also goes to all of the Dynamo home games with me as well.

But if it's a choice between Everton vs. Liverpool on Channel 1 and Pride & Prejudice on Channel 2, it's gonna be Channel 2 everytime.

 

[atrottel]

My bird doesnt mind it. She gets excited over Scotland games.

Ditto.

And likes to watch England lose. (And so appreciates why I like to watch the [Poor language removed] lose.)

And likes SAF.

 

[The Esk]

My wife has absolutely no understanding of, nor interest in football (or any other sports really). It's a great shame as my two kids are sports mad, and love football, particularly Everton.

It's the one thing about her I'd change given the chance
