Glad I saw it when it was a joy to play the game and watch it...albeit quite a few years ago.

Obviously still a joy to watch it , especially when the Leeds win
I dont quite enjoy watching football as much as when I was younger. One reason is VAR, especially for soft penalty and miniscule offside decisions. Another reason is the massive gulf in money (and purchased talent) between the top 7 or 8 premier league clubs and everyone else. There has always been a group of dominant clubs in English football but those groups changed in composition depending on the players and manager(s) not money. I feel the top clubs are where they are because of the wealth of owners. There are wealthy owners of course whose clubs don't/didnt hoover up the best talent (at obscene prices) available all the time, e.g. Leicester City and spurs. Leicester is in the Championship and I wasn't born when spurs last won the 1st division.
