It's more a Catholic/ southern Ireland thing to call football soccer

You dumb fucks, football is a term that refers to the sport that involves kicking a ball in some capacity that is predominant in the given region.
Soccer is simply an abbreviation of association football.
In Wales and New Zealand football often refers to rugby union. In Australia, "footy" refers to Australian rules football. In North America, it refers to gridiron. I can go on, but I think you ignorant pommies get the point.

Football is any team based ball game where you dont use a horse and run with your feet.

Rugby is a form of football, so is grid iron. Hell even basketball ball it.
But dont confuse them with racket or paddle sports.
