Anyone see it on the BBC News this morning? Freekick if you run, looks like a brilliant idea!

    A good way to get fit for us over 50's. If I could stop my son from laughing I would be really interested.

    Over 50's? I'm interested (As long as I'm in goal) and I'm only 35 lol

    Riquelme's made a career out of this. Lets the ball do the running for him.

    I was usually able to demonstrate this style of football from about ten minutes into a game. I always hoped it would catch on but everyone else seemed intent on rushing about. Pleased it's finally taking off (40 years too late!).

    I'm up for this. I'm 52 and can't run because I've had a hip replacement. Can we get the CACT involved?

    Well funny. Especially when that oblong reporter had a go.
    Pi55ed myself!

    Which was very apt ;-)
