| Football Is Gone on 20:58 - Feb 4 with 224 views | Southamptonfan | I absolutely agree with you Nick, and was about to say the same in response to your reply to me in the other thread. A Man City v Arsenal final is so boring and so predictable. You mentioned the top clubs needing to f@ck off and join a super league, yeah totally agree. Who will win the premier league? It will also be one of Man City or Arsenal. Next season it will Liverpool again, if not Man City or Arsenal. You do get the odd different cup winner, Crystal Palace being last season's FA Cup winner, Newcastle but they are still PL teams, who have spent a lot of money. Palace won't win it again for years if ever again. Have we ever had a cup winner from the Championship or league one in recent times, like the 1976 upset or the Wimbledon upset? Not a chance. At the Man City game, the advertising boards are displaying Chinese writing!. At the Arsenal game, the fans there were mostly Malaysian, Chinese, Japanes whatever they are, taking pictures, having paid £100 for the ticket. The "working class " from the area can't go, they can't afford it. In the PL, Villa won't win the league, Bournemouth, Palace are all back down the bottom.of.the league again. With VAR, super rich tourists, Sky f@cking TV and all the money going to only 6 clubs, yeah I.agree football is gone. I know one thing, despite my frustrations and moans with Saints, you wouldn't catch me dead in any of those PL grounds. [Post edited 4 Feb 21:13]

Well put as usual Southamptonfan. My sentiments to a tee. Nick and I have a history of disagreement on numerous subjects concerning the Saints.However on this topic he is entirely correct. In between doing other things, I watched bits and pieces of Arsenal v Chelsea yesterday evening. A throughly boring exhibition of sterile sideways and backward passing which if continued will ultimately kill the game for the majority of UK fans. |  |

Spot on saintmark1976. It's an utter borefest. Football has been turned into a scripted show, that so many across the world pay hundreds of pounds for. |  |
