Has the investigation into City been binned now because it's all gone very quiet?
Is it time to boycott football?

Not sure mate.
Hoping we all forget?
Lower league footy.
Not only is it cheaper and much more enjoyable, you`re also supporting a community asset.
Yeh but then I have to leave the house and it's bloody freezing.
For me, who does fondly remember the mavericks of multiple sports fondly, it is now watching soulless identical systems and paid employees of TV companies telling me something is great when I really don’t think it is. Punditry is now genuinely shocking. I always say Bill MaClaren was the most Scottish person in the world but I believe he would be genuinely upset if anyone got any hint of bais in his commentary of a Scotland V England rugby match.
Now it’s Spitty Carragher, Jamie Redknapp and Kenny Dalgleish’s daughter telling me, once again, how great the RS are. It’s not for me.
I now watch my local non league team. Much more interesting, and it’s me and 2 mates with pints of beer telling each other how rubbish they are
.
Ditto cricket. Bazball actually sets my teeth on edge,but I do still enjoy getting to Old Trafford to watch some county championship.
I can make my own mind up as to what is good and enjoyable.

This is my plan. I’ve had enough of “the most competitive league in the world” and the stuff that most have already mentioned.
I’ve done a season in the new ground now, but I won’t be renewing. I’ll go and watch non-league from next season and use that to get my football fix. Will still follow us, but I’ll be more of an arm chair fan - which I’ve been for a while now other than the fact I go to the home games.
I’m looking forward to it.

It is interesting how the teams that have built new stadiums have seen the quality of their support turn to crap as the need for more tourists to fill the seats has increased.
Arsenal, West Ham and Spurs are prime examples and Brighton can probably be included in that while it is too soon to say for EFC.

Non league football is the answer. Saturday 3.00pm Decide on the day which game, turn up and pay. Much cheaper. Stand where you like. Decent level of football and usually competitive.
We are suffering because the informal caste systems that allowed like minded support groups at Goodison to flourish have been destroyed. Can't pack scals, cypress hill listeners, mums with small kids, oaps, the landed gentry, and the divorcee that needs someone's to shout at into the same area. No one see's eye to eye so there's mither galore with snide reports grassing one another about x and y. The standing and singing area could have helped a lot with this, a zone clearly more raucous. The family zone needs expanding slightly and parents with youngish children focused to there. That this is clearly a problem and the cack handed yellow tickets on seats way of dealing with it simply is not communicating adequately to get the harmony right.
Can have a bevvy while you watch it as well.

Voting with your wallet best way to show dissatisfaction I guess. I have friends who complain about Sky TV especially the amount of ads on the subscription channels, yet they keep paying for it 
Never paid for footy on TV. Never will. I think not going to the games will be more visibly damaging to the premier league brand.Voting with your wallet best way to show dissatisfaction I guess.

Once they start playing games abroad, I think it will be the tipping point.
what would we moan about every week?
