Nothing engages the competitive spirit among lads quite like FIFA, so four lads have devised their own house rules to sort out the men from the mice.
Few games things in life have the effect like FIFA has over a large degree of the male population. Trash talking, bragging rights, showboating, the highest of highs and the lowest of lows are all consequences of the iconic football game, and four lads in Dublin have devised their own house rules to keep everything in order.
Breaching the rules is a serious offence – possible one month match ban or even house cleaning duties – and some in particular are rather eye-catching.
From the mandatory ultra-attacking tactic being mandatory, to the ‘executive chair’ for the home team to the quite brilliant ‘apology rule’ whereby the person defeated by more than six goals must write a letter of apology to the victor’s mother, these are very clear and concise regulations.
Anyone visiting Gavin Mullarkey, Fergal O’Neill, Brian Larkin and Breiffni Ó Domhnaill in Harold’s Cross, be aware that the boys take their FIFA very seriously indeed.
Cheers to Breiffni for sending this our way.
