    Since the introduction of sky sports and the wealthiest been guaranteeed to win everything every single year. The rich get richer syndrome that has saw football become a representation for the country as a whole plus the endless stoppages and outlawing of tackling/ do you know of anyone who used to watch football but now just doesn't give a fck. A friend of mine said that to me the other day 'I don't give a fck about football anymore'. I think he has a point.

    I've had a few elder customers say similar, used to be a fanatic but its not what is was anymore, pre-maddonas, rolling around like they've been shot, exploiting their wealth and fame, that sort of thing

    I watch as much English footy as I can. Just love it. From my point of view I am delighted.

    Some of the Spanish & Italian footy is OK but not keen on the french, German or Dutch games.

    It is a fair and obvious point, Sky and very wealthy owners have changed the outcome of games. It is simple the club that pays the most money in terms of sign on fees and wages tend to win everything. Sunderlands' season is about staying in the EPL, hoping for a couple of good cup runs and the two games against the mags.

    Despite this I am still bonkers about football, would be put of going if the season ticket price became exorbitant!

    I love the game BUT I hate how it has become. I have come close to walking away from it all but somehow I am lured back in.

    I just see it as evolution.
    It will be interesting to see what FIFA fail play does though... if anything.
