Gemmill 44851 Posted September 19, 2005 Share Posted September 19, 2005 Is anyone expecting this match tonight to be anything other than a snoozefest? I know it's the fashionable thing to say at the minute, but the Premiership has gone all to shit in terms of entertainment. I hardly bother much with matches on Sky that we aren't involved in anymore because they're invariably crap. Here's hoping tonight is more goalfest than snoozefest, just to prove me wrong.

TheInspiration 1 Posted September 19, 2005 Share Posted September 19, 2005 I seriously doubt Arsenal will win 7-0 anyway. I fear it'll become a snoozefest, but Arsenal haven't been renowned for negative football. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Papa Lazaru 0 Posted September 19, 2005 Share Posted September 19, 2005 It'll either be mind numbingly boring and quite a tight scorline, or a comfortable win for the arse...but still pretty boring! Owen wasn't wrong to notice after hardly any time back that the prem is turning to shit in terms of entertainment as a load of sheeplike managers copy the same blueprint and reduce games to complete boredom.

Guest Sima Posted September 19, 2005 Share Posted September 19, 2005 This football is boring thing is getting all out of hand now. Football doesn't get good until the turn of the year when you start playing for cups/league placings. That's why they never used to put the league table up until about 6 games into the season.

I hate the arse and their manager for many reasons but they are still one of the few teams left who play attacking football. However they are not at their best currently and so a negative team like Everton will have a chance of killing the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Sima Posted September 19, 2005 Share Posted September 19, 2005 Just because the tabloid media have got a hard on for cricket at the minute and the national football team has just lost to Northern Ireland they need to spit some new propaganda. It's all a bit Rugby WC 2003 to me. They are just basically saying what most other papers have said for ages about dwindling attendances, saturation, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And also comments by Wenger and now Owen about the state of things. The media has merely stated fact as well (unusually!) that entertainment is down, that goals are down and that attendances are down, so i'm not going to knowck them for once. As for the cricket, it makes a change for the tabloids to ackowledge that it exists other tha to rip into the England team, though of course they are mostly hypocrites and glory hunters to those of us who've followed it for years!
