What are these ‘Basketball’ and ‘Wrestling’ you speak of? Are these American things?
nah in fairness as people get older they romanticise about all subjects on how ‘it was better in my day.’ I get that, HOWEVER, this is the exception to the rule.
How would football not be much, much better if we didn’t have diving cheats, VAR which is just an embarrassment at this point, money greedy owners sucking the competition out of the sport, constantly being hounded to bet even though the average person is badly affected financially by a pandemic, inept officials, stop start shite games. Too many other things to list...
It’s nowhere near as good as it was, I will argue till I’m blue in the face on that, in fact I have done already in many VAR related threads amongst others.
The game was simple, pure, authentic. Three words I struggle to use to describe what we watch these days.
