My involvement in football has fallen off a cliff tbh, not sure if it’s my age or just lack of enjoyment.
Tbf everything seems to matter more when you’re younger. I remember being a teenager, I was playing football everyday. Watching whatever football was on the tv, just loved it.
Just turned 40, I maybe watch 2 full games a month now. Just other things I would rather spend my time on.
I despise the modernisation of football, i.e idiots on YouTube who are factually know nowts, just making coin off other idiots who love the game. Sky sports news 24 hour rolling coverage that has nothing of value, the internet statisticians who can’t kick a ball straight but know the percentages of a cunt hair. Talksport lowest common denominator shite that appeals to morons, baiting calls and clicks. Presenters on the live match doing all of the above. That stuff is boring.
What never changes is the feeling when your team beat a bigger team or smash a rival. It’s the reason lads in the crowd cheer a thumping tackle more than a world class pass. It’s what you feel rather than what you know.
