Anyway, I thought you created this thread with me in mind to have a good old moan?!
Modern Football Is Rubbish.

Exactly. I just need a flux capacitor 🙁
Look at the state of most pubs (sorry, bars) now. A travesty.
We need more Jolly Anglers/Crown & Cushions, and less Slug & Lettuces!
Rant over (for now)
Or the fucking printworks. Fuck off.
(That was meant to be in my last post but I can't edit on my phone, hence my rant is still technically over)

Pfft, he's clearly lying and just trying to improve his street cred by sounding trendy and modern!

Just so you know, Lee Dixon confessed to dropping the old 1st Division (now Championship) trophy, way back when and damaging it.
[/quote] Is the old 1st division cup really the actually trophy for winning the championship now?
And am I going mad or is it referred to, at least in the parlance of Liverpool football club as the "Old Lady"?

Central defenders moving sidweways to deliberately block a striker's run when the striker is trying to close down a clearance from the goalkeeper. John Terry is an absolute fucker for this.
Since when did this become legal and acceptable? A referee with a set would blow for a free-kick.

Good call. It's out of the same stable as the obstruction masquerading as "shielding the ball" which takes place when a ball is about to run out over the goalline.

I agree. If the defender isn't playing the ball it should be called as obstruction. It is ridiculous that it's allowed.

Let's get it all off our collective chest.
What gets on your tit end about the game, these days ?
I'll start....
All that basketball-style running about in the penalty area as a corner is being taken, and, also, all the shirt-pulling and extra nonsense that never gets punished.
GO !

Can I ask why you guys even bother watching football if this is how you feel?

Football is still by far the greatest sport in the world even if there are problems with it. Besides people probably love the club itself more than the sport.
Also most problems are only present in top tier football. The game is very much as it has always been in lower leagues and I nowadays enjoy watching even my local mud division football matches much much more than Champions League matches when Liverpool aren't playing for example. Many people seem to be put off by international football these days too but I'm quite the opposite. I love it because money hasn't ruined it as much as it has done to club football.
