Default Religion out of sport

Are we (my club) that bad, today I discovered one of the 3 sets of mens bogs behind the home goal has been converted into a muslim prayer room.


Apparently 5 requests for the prayer room were made last year and 4 of them being when we played man united. OK we were beat, but I don't think a couple of guys bowing at mecca is going to improve our game that day.

Now if I have one too many pints at half time. where do I go to drain the excess. The bogs. No it is now for muslim prayers, I will have to take my shoes off to go there now. Bet the carpet will be wet after a heavy session and reduced bog capacity.

Sorry if I offend anyone. But I ask you, if I want to pray to a god, I would go to a church, expect muslims to go to a mosque, jews to a synagogue, hindus etc. to a temple. I go to a football ground to worship the glorious game. Not to pray.

If they're going to go to the trouble of a prayer room, then they should charge muslims extra for tickets.

Hmmmm,behind the home goal?
If you think you can get round the new offside rule by claiming some sort of religeous PC rights you can think again.And there will be none of that wailing at half time either.
