Re: Football Season 2011/12
After Gerrards tonight, there has been 16 hat tricks so far this season, which is impressive. I think it was the 06/07 season there was only 3!

Premier League chairman Sir Dave Richards has accused Fifa and Uefa of stealing football from the English.
At a conference in Qatar, Richards, who later injured himself tripping over a fountain, suggested that the world had England to thank for football.
"England gave the world football. It gave the best legacy anyone could give. We gave them the game," said Richards.
"Then, 50 years later, some guy came along and said, you're liars, and they actually stole it. It was called Fifa."

“We started the game and wrote the rules and took it the world”
Sir Dave Richards
Richards, who is also a Football Association board member, was speaking in front of Fifa vice president Prince Ali Bin Hussein of Jordan and International Cricket Council chief executive Haroon Lorgat.
He added: "Fifty years later, another gang came along called Uefa and stole a bit more."

I doubt he meant modern football but there is evidence of games involving balls being kicked played in China from the second century BC

I don't think anyone is suggesting that modern football was not created in England but to suggest no one was playing games involving kicking a ball before this is nonsense.
