Ah, back to the death of football are we? Sky? Bosman? Johnny Haynes? Transfers? Hey, the world's moved on. I hate Murdoch, but finally got Sky for the Rugby League, in the same way that I loathe the bankers mentality but still have an acct at Gnat West, the give us your money bank (copyright Viz). I think the FA with a bit of foresight could have predicted where it would end up, but vested interest stopped any real master-plan. Too late now - the genie's out of the bottle. I'm just amazed that we haven't got a no-tackling rule yet? As for when it all changed, when they stopped using proper footballs and replaced them with plastic beach-balls instead! The jessies playing today would crumble if they had to head an old-style ball! Is this an extension of the 'when did Britain become a nation of bleeding hearts' thread? With everything under the microscope? I think Perspective went when the world when 'e'. Instant comms, everyone had a voice, no matter how irrelevant, don't like something - get an e-petition going! Obviously I am now an old fart yearning for yesteryear? Nah, not really, but some of it was better that's for sure. Jesus, even Norman Tebbit now appears principled compared to some of the latest Hitler yoof! Right, gotta go - Diners, Drive Ins and Dives to watch - one of the progs to watch on Sky!!!

No mugs buying sky = football with a bit of soul and integrity. Sky subscribers are 100% responsible for the shite state of affairs. I'm sick of people claiming they never had sky, or that it wouldn't have mattered had they not had Sky. Everyone knew back in the 90s where it was leading, but some people just couldn't resist. No better than your average banker. Possibly worse. _______________________________________________ Leedslist mailing list Info and options: http://mailman.greennet.org.uk/mailman/listinfo/leedslist To unsubscribe, email [email protected] PETE CASS (1962 - 2011) Rest In Peace Mate _______________________________________________ Leedslist mailing list Info and options: http://mailman.greennet.org.uk/mailman/listinfo/leedslist To unsubscribe, email [email protected] PETE CASS (1962 - 2011) Rest In Peace Mate
