Seems to me the current football cycle is about to implode. I find myself losing interest in the game more and more. I'm not the only one. The costs of tickets, merchandise, tv subscriptions, the amount of money these greedy players and their agents demand. The over saturation of live games. It is out of control. When I read the pending walk-out at the Riverside, Arsenal fans furious about their already high ticket prices going up another 10%. It seems there is more fans becoming disgruntled about the whole thing. Once upon a time football was for the working class. I don't believe that is the case anymore. I would be really curious the average age of a season ticket holder is now.
I really believe real fans are fed up. What would happen if fans stopped paying for sky and the rest. What would happen if fans actually did what they say they and voted with their feet and stopped going. Easy to say well it would hurt the club but the clubs don't seem to care they are hurting their own fans with their high ticket prices and stupid money for a shirt.
I really fear for the game in its current format. Football is not about money. Seems to me that FIFA in their thirst of money have ruined the game that it was and clubs have jumped in with two feet to be part of the corruption. The game is no longer the same game it use to be IMHO. I believe the day of reckoning is close.
Curious what others think of the state of football these days?
