LC/FC Posted 28 March 2021 Share Posted 28 March 2021 18 minutes ago, Guest said: I suppose it depends on what it is exactly about modern football you don't like. If it's the massive wealth inequality and rampant cheating then yeah, you're probably quite justified in being against modern football. If what you don't like about it is all these bloody foreigners and all these bloody women and the fact that players don't smoke fifty a day any more then you're probably just a bit of a tool and maybe the problem is you, not football. The money bandied about in the top echelons of the game are totally unfair and clubs clamouring how it ruins the entire pyramid are totally correct and valid about the current modern situation when it comes to finances... But is that really what Nottingham Forest fans are referring to? Are they heck! They thought the fridge man would bankroll them back to the top 15 years ago, so it's not about the financial disparity. Allthat thread is a bunch of old boys glorifying their years on top "back in teh day". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People generally like the "good old days" because it reminds them of their youth and the best days of their lives. I remember starting work as a 16yo and there was a man there who was 64 who used to tell me about the "good old days" when he worked 12 hours a day, 5 days a week at a machine and ate his lunch whilst still working because there was no breaks. He'd then tell me my generation didn't know what proper work was. The irony was he was one of most skiving, workshy ****ers I have ever worked with. He's dead now, I seen his gravestone a couple of months a go. Edited 29 March 2021 by Gerard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davieG Posted 29 March 2021 Author Share Posted 29 March 2021 Well it's a mix and match you can pluck things out of different eras that are better than the current one but that means there are plenty of good things about the current time. Unfortunately we can't mix and match you have to take life as it comes. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SkidsFox Posted 29 March 2021 Share Posted 29 March 2021 Also, make the most of things when the good stuff is around eg in a steady job, or your team is challenging for trophies. When the tide turns you can be decades struggling to get by. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did Sean Dyche rig the voting Their new owners have finance things by putting the club in a serious amount of debt like the Glaziers did at Man Utd. They might be fine but the fear is that they bugger off and leave the debt with the club. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
