Does anyone actually still watch football?

I dont watch it but I used to go to the games in 2017 but I dont bother now mainly because Id rather save my money for better stuff coz it like £30 per game then memberships and just seeing my team lose nah Im just not into it id rather be at home relaxing or going pub or focusing on my goals for my future. Also lets be honest I supported Manchester United but Im being honest they arent really good at all now and Ole isnt really good, the team are basically terrible now so thats another reason. Its all about the money now its just true they all have Bentleys, Ranges and massive houses the players couldnt care less if they win or lose its just the truth tbh. If they actually fully cared I would think about going games but they just dont its a fact. I dont watch football at all now not even on tv or radio etc. Cba with it also I dont even know if the whole thing is rigged so nah watching football isnt for me

Do you watch it yourself mate? I think some people think players care more than they do

Ive seen them but yep hes only young and was still at school in 2016 so he can remember where hes come from but it will probably reduce and hell get more arrogant. When Rashford came on the scenes in 2016 you can tell he was a bit nervous on interviews and in games but now you can tell hes a lot more confident and a bit arrogant

Of course they care, no professional sportsperson wants to spend their career losing. Have you ever played a sport, cos it doesn't seem like you have. Nobody is ever happy to get beat (unless they are taking a bung)
I think it's dipped in popularity a tiiiny bit amongst some but it's still by far the biggest sport thing going

If you think he wanted to be in the situation that he was in, then I can't help ye

Like everyone else, they have bad days, bad spells, bad attitudes sometimes, but unless they are corrupt or maybe ill, no sportsman cares so little about their vocation that they are sound with underperforming and losing every week
Was once asked to turf a first division soccer player's garden but the turf that arrived was crap! Phoned the boss but he said carry on... use the best bits,,, what best bits? 5 hrs later he turned up in a Ferrari... I'm not paying you for that!!! Don't blame you, neither would I.
