I like the discussion, just don't like the abuse I get when you don't like the subject matter.

I am not a troll. Some threads are hit and miss of course. I post about things I am interested in.

I don't particularly like being called a "knob", a "dildo", a "bellend" and so on. I just ignore it and concentrate on what's being discussed.

I accept your apology.

Um Nat, it didn't look like an apology to me.

Lets see how many sincere posts are added to this thread which support the idea that "football is dying", then we'll see if it's a perfectly good thread or not.

It seems if you don't agree with someone, usually Natasha, you accuse them of being a wum or a troll.

Shut up you bellend, you don't even know what troll means.

Back on the foes list.

The commentators and pundits tried to blame the Olympics for people not turning up - but does the prospect of watching a bit of horse riding really trump top class football? Of course not.

Is the truth more likely to be that people have finally woken up and realised that football is currently a massive rip-off, especially Premier League football? I'm not saying the games aren't exciting, but the standard is pitiful, no better than League 1 was 20 years ago.

If we'd had a monkey in charge last season we would have stayed up, but I wouldn't have been looking forward to the new season, the only debate being how many we would lose by. In truth I am looking forward to the Championship season purely because it's new teams and new grounds to visit.

But it doesn't change the fact that football, in my opinion, is dying a slow death. And that can only be a good thing.
