A lot of this attitude stems parents who will only accept winning though, and from the current crop of live">idols in the Premier League. I work with primary school kids and I do my best to stop the gloating that "We beat you" and the crying from those that lost - but I am swimming against the tide.

It would be nice if more sport was played in primary and junior schools,the school my kids goes to doesn't even have a football team.
