Fairfax Sportsplex new ownership

[Anonymous]

NP here- I think taking on players 1v1 is as important as understanding when and where to pass. I also think we are doing the sport a disservice by not teaching kids to be in the correct position off the ball. All skills are important tools in a players tool box. Being able to make flashy moves while dribbling are only good if you can also deliver a pass with the same accuracy. The art of both making runs to free up others is just as important as the defender containing the dribbler without heavy pressure making 1v1 on ball moves ineffective.

Are you out of your f’n minds? And can you please stop using Latin when you mean Central/South American, unless you are sweeping Spanish and Portuguese players into these preposterous and incorrect observations?

What continent is Central America officially considered?
Why is the PPs observations preposterous?

What continent has “latins,” dumba$$?

Perhaps more than one?

Is Ronaldo European? Mbappe? Knabery? Perhaps some pretty good foot skills there. Do you think Messi focuses too much on foot skills, or all the Brazilians who are on every roster of every top notch football team in the world?

All players at top levels both (1) have extraordinary foot skills, and (2) know how to play the ball, play with the ball, and play off the ball. One does not come at the expense of other. Those who have footskills get more time to possess the ball and play better passes. Some people are better at one dimension of the game than others but that doesn’t mean we should be focusing exclusively on one or the other. It’s a silly discussion and plainly wrong with respect to both soccer and continental and cultural stereotypes.

Remember stereotypes only stick if there is truth to it.

It was the same price to have a team at sportsplex and St James. Clear winner in this debate. Sportsplex is an expensive dump

Blah blah blah just shoot me now with this puerile crap. You are just dumb and ought to pay people a lot more than you already do to listen to one word coming out your mouth. You certainly aren’t doing anything to prove that stupid people are occasionally insightful.

Would you advise a relative to be an owner / operator of this facility amid a two year-plus pandemic? If not, don't get involved with someone else's financial decisions. It's not a public park, it's a private business.
