Just try and enjoy the bond between you and your son and ignore the actual football. The connection with him will be what you remember rather than anything that happens on the pitch.

Must admit the sly 6 have done a magnificent job with the FFP and new PSR systems they have made up, there infallible. Now every team outside the sly 6 will be just terrified to challenge them anymore, what's the point, just look what's happening to Everton..

It hasn't quite worked perfectly, as the rs and Man United would have wanted. Because Man City can fabricate Commercial deals they can spend what they want. Chelsea will fall by the wayside soon, so it will be a 3 club league instead of 4. I don't really count Arsenal and Spurs as they never win the league or Champions League. In their ideal world the rs and United would be like Real and Barcelona, taking it in turns.

I chose not to choose Football, I chose something else
They will continue to ruin the game as long as fans keep paying a fortune to watch it.
Agreed on the officiating and cheating ruining it but part of me thinks maybe they like it as it drives a lot of clicks and commentary their way.
The Premier League needs overthrowing but that would take a union between fans, and they got us fighting amongst ourselves than against the real enemy of them and the media extorting us for access to our game, not theirs.

The PL have ruined football. It's not a credible competition. They can't even get simple decisions right on VAR so why should we expect them to be able to govern the game properly.
We need the government to come in and regulate them, and reduce their powers, because the league have shown they are unable to govern the game fairly and competently.

It's been slowly dying for years. In-fact I'd go as far back as when United jibbed the FA Cup off to play in the World Club Championship. It pretty much killed the Cup as a prestigious trophy in this country. The Champions League saps all the money and teams are just happy to qualify for it rather than actually win something. Chelsea kind of started the moneybags thing but City have driven a stake through the heart of the game. I hate them but at least United, RS and Arsenal are traditionally big clubs that you expect to be competing... Man City? They had Willo Flood and Nicky Weaver starting for them 20 years ago. Now they're the best team on the planet and anytime a team gets close they just rub the magic money lamp. It's not football it's more like NFL.
I was always against huge foreign investment into us but now I genuinely hope we get bought by the richest scumbags out there who turn us into the new City. if everyone else is doing it why not eh. Give us a little bit of enjoyment before it all collapses.
I just try not to let the noise bother me anymore, you can't even celebrate a goal properly incase someones had his armpit hair pulled 30 seconds before or a lace is potentially offside. I just use football as an excuse to drink. "Shall we go to the retail park?" "Sorry love the games on so I'm gonna sit on this bottle of brandy"

I have seen Malmö and IFK Göteborg games when I have been in Sweden. Far more enjoyable than the over-hyped Prem League.
In Gothenburg I watched the local derby Örgryte IS v GAIS in the Superettan League (Championship to us) There was only 8,000 in the stadium but the noise was incredible. Great atmosphere, enjoyable game. No Danny Murphy spouting gash about it either.

A bit like the country, it's actually not too late to save football. We have more big clubs than any other country, and a simple piece of regulation to cap wages and transfer fees would enable 30 or 40 clubs to be able to compete with each other. But, like the country, the powers that be won't regulate due to the Uber capitalist nature of our society now. I'm just glad I'm old enough to remember life before money became the be all and end all
I have zero interest in watching matches that don't involve Everton now..
I also find it hard to motivate myself to watch matches that DO involve Everton..
It is dying.
My boss bought season tickets for Preston last few seasons. I managed to go half a dozen games. Honestly a better watch than the premier league currently..

The Swedish league has had something like 10 winners in the last 12 years. Much more exciting than our dire fare. The only thing that made me smile last season was West Ham winning the Europa Conference League!
The day they pulled up the drawbridge to stop any teams competing with the cabal was the day the PL officially died.
