    Football in general is dead to me and has been for a while. I dont watch it - feel extremely detached from the national teams, so called big leagues, the ronaldos of this world etc etc etc. I literally watch united for what i can only describe as its in my blood. I dont read about any other teams just us - i watch no highlights just us and ive been known to laugh more than i care at what i am seeing in last few years. As for the OF, england and world football - hope they all implode financially but i cant see it.

    tbh i agree, i think this is why i am so angry about us right now as im starting to watch all football less and less. Even the so called big teams packed with super stars are boring to watch. Man City are an absolute snooze fest and every manager now wants to look at whats trendy (what is pep doing) and force teams to play it with very little ability to make it work. This is prob why i am struggling with the whole value thing, since im paying out money to fall asleep and i could just get sleeping pills for cheaper

    I hardly watch football on TV, haven't for the last few seasons. Man Utd v Chelsea or Man City v Liverpool doesn't interest me in the slightest. I watched Scotland last night and enjoyed the game but I didn't watch them on Saturday as I had the boxing on all night.

    The St Mirren game on Saturday will be my 1st game back since the pandemic started and I cannot wait.

    Boxing has become my sport to watch as well. Even though i see that going the same way but love the hype and enjoy a lot of it.

    Must admit, the days of setting the Betamax so you could come home to watch Scotsport, Sportcene, Match of the day are long long gone for me too. Unless its United or Scotland I don't even watch any matches on demand etc, but would probably have been there anyway or watched on PPV or Sky.

    It might be that we are being saturated with football nearly every day/night of the week instead of looking forward to one or two matches per week.

    I don't know, but I agree with a few posters that football isn't quite so alive (for me at least) as it used to be.
