Ok I have been listening and scoring Albion forums on the Web,
Now i'm as pissed as most of you at the football that's being served up
But TP saved us from relegation last year
Now ....................
Read this and just think about it for a moment,
I saw this post earlier on another forum.
I Welcome your thoughts on what I think is one of the best posts I have read in a long time
People cheer when they win, boo when they don't. That's modern football.
This obsession with 'attractive' football is the biggest load of balls in the modern game. Premier League football is stale, crap and generally boring. The only interesting thing about this season is Leicester and they play much of their game without the ball. I don't want to take too much away from them as I'd love them to win it, but let's not kid ourselves that their emergence hasn't been as much about the shitness of the usual top teams.
When did anyone last see an 'attractive' game of Premier League football? The enthralling games are usually those full of mistakes and as a consequence, goals. You sometimes get expansive football when there's a mis-match, but games between evenly matched teams are generally dour and tedious affairs, whichever end of the table.
Modern football is full of twats from those reporting on it in the media, many playing and many supporters. There were boos at the Emirates when the final whistle went last night because they hadn't won. They could still win the league FFS and they're booing a home draw against Southampton where Forster has had a worldy and most commentators couldn't believe they didn't win the game.
People are force fed crap like possession stats which mean **** all. I've had so many Villa fans quoting the possession stats from last week's game and they now treat it like they beat us. When I point out that they didn't manage to get closer than a few 25 yard efforts that were comfortable for Foster they tell me I'm bitter. It's typical of the bull invented to sensationalise the news and give 'insight' that can be spun to suit their current agenda. There are only two stats that count, results and league tables.
You could watch SSN for a whole year and see nothing as insightful as the analysis piece on Swansea posted pre match. The problem is, SSN is the start and end of many modern supporters' football knowledge.
That pisses me off, so I'm currently booing the TV.
