Chapter Six - Improving football.

So how do you improve what the majority think is the best sport in the world? Well, heres a little doozie for The FA to think about before the new season starts. To make things more exciting, why not set the goal posts on fire.

Heres the idea. If the goal posts are set on fire, then the goal keepers will be doing more than just standing there. Their job on the field will become a lot more interesting. Basically if the goal posts were on fire then all the strikers would aim for the goal posts hoping the ball would rebound off the post or just sneak in, which means the keeper can't save the shot otherwise he would be set on fire, which results in more goals and enjoyment for all.

However, if he saves a shot near the posts, the likelihood is he will catch fire and run around on fire for the enjoyment and amusement for all. That is, until he drops dead.

Never mind, even the greatest of inventions had flaws.
