You could do. I know football causes a lot of arguements no matter where you go in the world, but it's popular and worth all the flame it causes. I take it the arguement part is the reason behind it getting denied?
I just noticed I made the topic with a [C] instead of [ S ] :p
I just looked at the link estroe posted. Can't believe I didn't see that topic!
12 say yes, 6 say no, so there's double for yes than there is for no. And about the 'there aren't any football topics', that's because there's no board for it. The offtopic section would be overloaded if people kept posting topics. And there weren't that many topics on gaming either, just the odd 'favourite game' and then came the CoD talks and that L4D and then a whole category got added and look where that lead.
Football like I said will always lead to flame, but that's because of bitter fans disagreeing with something the ref did in the game and someone supporting the opposing team thinks he's wrong and then an arguement emerges. But that can be avoided.
And like I said, if not a football / sport section, create that TV section and add a sub-board for football / sport. Or perhaps a new category for TV / Entertainment? Then give sport a seperate board and again sub-board for football.
There's only a few topics a year because there's only really a few things to talk about. The Champions League starting, a person's country's main league starting, the World Cup, European Cup, etc. If a board is created for it, people could post about different things.
I also noticed that other topic isn't locked, so I'll copy this an put it there and you can just lock this thread if you want.
