why does act as if have it feel tough to you ? what ' s the hitch ? <| sep |> The rules of association football were codified in England by the Football Association in 1863 and the name association football was coined to distinguish the game from the other forms of football played at the time , specifically rugby football . The term soccer originated in England , first appearing in the 1880 s as an Oxford er abbreviation of the word association . You fucktard still don ' t get it , do you ? There are multiple forms of an at least medieval , if not ancient ball game called football , all of which involve carrying the ball in your hands except oneSoccer . Rugby is actually Rugby Football , the form of football played in Rugby . Gaelic football is another . American football is the way the game is played in North America , Australian Football is how they play it in Australia . The terms the americans use are the correct terms . For them to change that would be submitting to the clueless idiocy of people like you , which , sadly , make up the majority of people in this world . Now piss off , your fucking thickness makes me nauseous .
