Bundesliga so the return of English football doesn't particulary excite me but it'll be good for the U.K. to have football back again and of course we'll get to see Albion achieve the promotion that we deserve.
I've watched a couple of games as well, Josh. As you'd expect the standard has been extremely high but I've now given up watching, solely on the grounds of absolutely no atmosphere in the stadia. I just find it's like watching a training ground match between blue bibs and green bibs. I watched the first game back which was the famous River Derby between Dortmund and Schalke - it had about as much passion as Stenhousemuir v East Fife (apologies to fans of either but I've been to that game and the ground wasn't rocking!), yet to see that game under normal circumstances would have been excellent. So, like you, the return of English football doesn't excite me but for different reasons; it just made me realise how much the fans make the game....it would be really excellent if Sky and the Football Associations/Leagues also appreciated this, instead of taking us for mugs,
