Not just that though Charles21

It's just so boring now. All the major competitions are f**king very dull. Same old teams. Gone are the days when a Notts Forest could rule Europe. Long gone are the days when the FA Cup actually meant something to players and fans. Now it means pretty much f**k all. Everything is driven by the Champions League. And it is s**t.
