How excited am I about the new season and football in general?

Slow possession football, playing out from the back regardless of whether you’re Man City or Mansfield, endless tactical fouls high up the pitch without punishment, games being determined by elaborate corner routines involving outlandishly tall giants charging about in unison, every set piece being a complete free for all of unpunished fouls, and its BAKAYO SAKA s**t commentators, Rio f**king Ferdinand, Jamie f**king Carragher, Alan f**king Shearer, Micah f**king Richards, parachute payment recipients achieving 100 points in the champs without breaking sweat, guaranteed relegation for all promoted teams the season after, same sides (almost) always at the top of the Prem, same sides (almost) always in the middle of the Prem, Sky trying to make The Battle for 7th sound exciting, big clubs hoovering up every talented player that moves, the most exciting signings clubs make usually being a loan signings you’ll never actually have any ability to own, big data, high tech analysis being shared with thick as mince players who still cant defend, clueless referees who make bafflingly inconsistent decisions, VAR, every despotic Middle Eastern country having its own club and the media playing along happily with the sportswashing and telling us how romantic it is when PSG or Newcastle amazingly win something, inexorable move towards a European Super League that still leaves the mega clubs dominating their local leagues, essentially the same teams in the quarters/semis of the Champions League every single f**king year, US hedge funds with minmaxed transfer strategies to maximise their portfolio of assets, basically no club anywhere making a profit, essentially no local lads making it into the team, stupid f**king haircuts, full body tattoos and facial piercings, the appalling nature of most international football stuffed full of utterly pointless one sided games and meaningless friendlies, spending the entire close season playing meaningless friendlies in the US/Far East and f**king Ouagadougou, FFP, Man City case taking for ever, clubs wantonly breaking the FFP rules and mostly getting tiny penalties irrelevant penalties, amortising transfer fees over 17 years, I’ll sell you a young player for 50m and I’ll buy one from you for 50m (neither player ever plays), all the Middle Eastern run football clubs having massive marketing deals with random state owned countries and nobody doing a thing, needing about 7 subscriptions to be able to watch the football at ever increasing cost, ever increasing ticket prices, 27 quid for a pie, drug dealers and con artists passing the fit and proper person test, kick off times moved to 2am on a Sunday for the tv audience, referees falling for manufactured contact penalties every single f**king time, big club players surrounding refs and complaining about every single decision, feigning injury, imaginary yellow cards, no longer supporting a club but a global leisure brand, players kissing the badge and posting their eternal love for a club on insta then f**king off to Saudi Arabia, the Saudi Arabian League, EvilTwatBet.com on the front of every single club shirt, conspiracy of media silence about how w**k everything is in the best league in the world. And nobody with the ability to do something about it having any interest or incentive to do so.
