I used to love a good kick around and playing football, its a great game to play, but I can't stand watching it. FIFA has ruined the UK game. And left the English leagues with very little home grown talent. Football could learn a lot from rugby. UK football needs to cap salaries and take agents out of the picture. They need to limit the amount of foreign players on a team to say no more than 35%. They need to make full use of the video ref for decisions. Players need to respect the refs decision. Respect needs to be brought back to the game. Money has ruined the sport, the players have become over paid pitch diving fairies. They used to say football as a sport played by gentlemen. But I struggle to see any of that kind of conduct in the sport anymore. When my kids are old enough I'm more than happy to take them to a rugby game. But football is not an atmospheric sport id be happy exposing my kids to. Just watch kids play it at the grass routes level, with parents swearing and threatening refs. The racism at club level. And the greed and heavily publicized infidelity. Homophobia etc etc I could go on. Football is not a sport to find role models in. Rugby, you take a nock, you get back up and you soldier on. I yearn for the day football returns to the quality and high standard game it used to be.
