    Anyone else not happy with the way football seems too be going now. It all seems to be money money money, traditions of a club seem too be sold of to the highest bidder with no regard to the fans. Its no longer a working class mans sport. Its a sad day for football when a club with the heritage and tradition of newcastle united renames there stadium to advertise sports direct

    Got to move with the times. Long gone are the days when the teams star player comes for a pint with the fans after the game. Its all about money and superstardom,not ideal but its the way it is!!!

    To be fair chap, football has been money, money, money since the early 90's. Once clubs were listed on the stock exchange it was no longer a sport for the fans. It was a business for shareholders and money men.
