Rob heath answered me with:- > I did indeed love good old "Come on" Tim. Winning is not everything in sport, > although it's amazing how many people watch or play sport yet don't know > that. P.s. No. > Maybe if your statement is true to yourself, then that’s why you are a Leeds United supporter. Did you know Billy Bremner wrote a book, 'You get nowt for being second’………..or seventh...He wouldn’t have agreed with you, perhaps. Winning is very important as everyone knows and winning surely is why professional people do sport. I am not saying winning is everything but the old Olympic saying, "The most important thing is not winning but taking part”, was when the Games were played and competed by amateurs……Before cash ruled sports….Me personally would prefer winning and saying hard luck to the losers. Anyhow Rob, we all have our opinions, but I go along more with Billy Bremner, than your good self. Have a good afternoon and evening. Cheers and Beers Thirkers\]098/
