peelyfeet Posted February 18, 2020 Share Posted February 18, 2020 Been following the Man city debacle over the last few days and just heard the Mino Raiola interview with talksport this morning!! - Football has changed so much in the last 20 years, it's barely recognisable. Our dragged out takeover, and the obsession with money from players, owners, agents, is boring I'm falling out of love with it to be honest, I'm actually looking forward to being in LG2 next season, I might cancel Sky and switch off Talksport, watch us and some local non- league instead, get back to what its all about.

I’ve sacked sky and can’t listen to talk sport it’s a mouthpiece for prem clubs and nothing else, firestick gets me the odd prem game and champions league game I want to watch. Without a doubt the gap between top 6 in prem and everyone else killing the magic of football and that’s sad. And don’t get me started on modern day fans and atmosphere, in general both are utter shite. Don’t help when we’re double shite either.

Leyther_Matt Posted February 18, 2020 Share Posted February 18, 2020 Have never bothered with Talksport. Don't bother with MOTD. Watch the odd Premier League game on Sky if there's nowt else on, but I just watch it for what it is rather than the whole circus that surrounds it. Can't say I'm in any rush for us to get anywhere near that level again, though I suppose just showing the ability to do so would be a nice change after the last few years.

frank_spencer Posted February 18, 2020 Share Posted February 18, 2020 Talksport has always been shit. Thinking about binning off the sky and getting an NFL game pass. I watch the footy when it's on but I don't think I'll miss it too much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Take Hunt Off Posted February 18, 2020 Share Posted February 18, 2020 Cant cope with sky & all the bullshit .Talksport is utter cack.Var has made even watching highlights a tedious chore. My mate who now attends zero Wanderers games is obsessive about all the above.I just tell him I dont give a shiny shite about any of it .He really does not believe me & genuinely doesnt get it.

Ani Posted February 18, 2020 Share Posted February 18, 2020 Port Vale away. Shrewsbury away. Forest at home and Wycombe away All in recent years were brilliant. We are fucking awful which makes it worse. There is a life and an identity that clubs can have without being premier league obsessed. We need to find ours and not get worried by the bollocks that goes on (and always has) in the game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Okocha10 Posted February 18, 2020 Share Posted February 18, 2020 Surely it's all going to come to an end at some point, football isn't sustainable the way it currently is. My opinion also football agents should be banned, where does it end their greed & holding football clubs to ransom. Tossers like that Raiola make my blood boil, he's not in football for love on the game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Take Hunt Off Posted February 18, 2020 Share Posted February 18, 2020 The 'End' has been predicted for years & years but never happens .At the top the game is swimming in money & the pool just gets deeper & deeper but no one drowns.In the shallow end clubs doggy paddle to keep afloat & occasionally one gets sucked under or like us latches on to a liferaft & survives .Expect more drowning incidents in the shallows over the next couple of seasons & not much change at the top unless a catastrophic failure occurs & the money men pull the plug , most unlikely given the vested interests involved .The only hope would be the customer switching off.

tomski Posted February 18, 2020 Share Posted February 18, 2020 Sky is close to going in my house. I can’t stand Gary Neville and Sky’s obsession with Man ure getting back to the top. The commentary is so fucking biased. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tomski Posted February 18, 2020 Share Posted February 18, 2020 I much prefer Carragher due to the fact he shows Neville up regularly. Interestingly I feel exactly the same about Neville’s voice it grates on me like fuck. I’m amazed anyone can like him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BT has an odd line up but it feels it has less of an agenda than Sky. Ive always thought the Scottish pundits, soccer Saturday mob especially are loads better. I think they need to try making it less of a show. Just show the match, Show some highlights objectively after. The end. VAR needs to go. It is so shit.

Site Supporter Tonge moor green jacket Posted February 18, 2020 Site Supporter Share Posted February 18, 2020 I see Neville as being quite fair to be honest. Obviously he loves his club, and that's normal, but he's not afraid of criticising them where necessary. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MancWanderer Posted February 18, 2020 Share Posted February 18, 2020 The game is absolutely on its arse. It’s gone. Not financially, but as a competitive sport. “Giant-killing”. Fuck me, a phrase that I grew up with talking about football. Barely hear it nowadays when a Prem club’s 3rd string millionaires can batter a lower league club because said Prem club has hoovered all the talent up and they are happy to train every day, barely ever play, and trouser a fortune Greed is the word. At all levels. KA a perfect example albeit at a low level. Killing a club for personal gain. Bury shamefully died whilst a week’s salary for a few players who won’t play more than a handful of games in the Prem is the equivalent to them still being alive as a club Setting my hatred for City aside, if UEFA and the EPL don’t come down on them nowt will change. Actually no, it will, it will get worse. Punish them properly and a rather large can of worms may be opened imo with other clubs being very worried and it may benefit the game. Nowt will happen though. UEFA are the most corrupt cunts of the lot Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
