Soccer is a British term from the 1800's, it is derived from asSOCiation football, the other being Rugger for RUGby football. The rules of soccer were first codified in the 1800's, over 30 years after "America" had already existed.
Stupid fucking Europeans who don't know their history are a disgrace and commonplace. How sad the queen must be...
@gleader The Oxford English Dictionary (OED) records that the first written use of the word football used to describe a game was in 1424 in an Act forbidding it. The first written use of the word football to describe the ball was 1486, and that the first use as a verb (hence footballing) was in 1599. For the etymology, the OED just indicates it is a compound of foot and ball. So no its not the Europeans who are stupid.....
@steve201987 As clearly stated in my post, I'm talking about the term soccer, not football. I also never mentioned which countries use the term "soccer" as my only intention was to demonstrate that "soccer" is a British term, which I did. You obviously lack comprehensive reading ability and rudimentary logic, so yeah, you are an idiot.
@gleader as you've struggle to read what I've put you clearly didn't understand that soccer isn't a british term......as dated back to 1424 it was noted as 'Football'. I like how you try to cover the fact you're impossibly stupid with insults....but I don't mind I'm happy in the knowledge that I've educated someone in as much need of an education as what you clearly are :). It must be fun for you being wrong all the time eh mate? :)
@steve201987 And 400 years after it was noted as "football" they called it "soccer" and then distinguished it as "football" and "rugby" and rugby has less to do with classical football and more to do with american football. so like i said, you're an idiot, still.
@gleader Right so it's noted as Football in British History and then someone else who isn't british names it Soccer 400 YEARS LATER!!!! that means soccer is a brittish term? seriously what the fuck is wrong with your brain?????????????????????
@steve201987 The British invented the term Soccer and Rugger in the 1800's to distinguish the two more easily and later called them Football and Rugby, as we know them now. I don't know why this is so hard for you to grasp.
@gleader Also 'Soccer' is only used by America and Canada from the 'Association Football' where as 43 out of the 45 Natiol FiFA affiliates use 'Football' organisations' in their official names. Judging by your statement about the Queen you've shown that you're another American that believes he/she is right about everything when infact they couldn't be further from the truth :)
Here we go again. One stupid American posts some ignorance and shit hits the fan. I wish everyone from both the US and United Kingdom would shut the fuck up and worry about key issues like obesity in America and the muslim invasion of the UK. If you're going to blabber, make it good.
Actually, Soccer/futbol/football was first started in Japan in 1000 B.C. and China also played it. In the Roman empire there was a sport that was similar to soccer and also the Mayans had a similar game. How did the USA rise to be a superpower if it is full of "dumb" yanks? Hmm.. You are simply just a person with a lack of knowledge (ignorant) and arrogant. In simple terms: You are a fag.
England did invent football you stupid cunt!! LOL" football was first started in japan 1000 B.C"? Yeah how the fuck would you know, were you there? And how the fuck is USA a "superpower"? What an arrogant piece of dumb shit you are.
@WestCountryCider ya...its a shame the dumb yanks kicked your a** in the revolutionary war. Hope y'all had fun losing to a bunch of farmers with pitchforks, you blasted redcoat.
