Is it just me or is anyone else out there getting a little bored of the shear volume of live games on TV? 2/3 weeks into the new season and already it’s becoming dull and predictable. I come from a generation where the Big Match was a weekly event, I’d really get excited looking forward to a live game on ITV, now with games on all the time - I’m already bored, it’s a rarity that I genuinely look forward to watching a game. It just feels like overkill and for me it’s draining all the interest I have for football, especially with the majority of teams - from all levels - playing a similar style. Surely, less really can be more instead of forcing as many games down our throats as possible? I appreciate money talks in the modern game, but surely this is simply overkill now?
On reflection, it’s probably me just getting older and I could simply choose another channel to watch! [Post edited 25 Aug 5:25]

I just watch Town. Lost interest in football in general and losing interest more and more . Games are getting decided upon sketchy penalty decisions and it's becoming stop/start with players feigning injury., etc. The new fans are more interested in thr legal side of the game like silhouettes and the stats (XG, etc) and the new invented tactics like low blocks ( we never had closing down in the past).
We're being fed too much so that they can exploit as much they can ....and it feels like football's been stretched as far as it can. But we can still have the choice to watch as little or as much as we want. | | | |

I would suggest that football has become more boring these days, the live TV coverage just highlights it. |  | | |

Agree about the new fans interests - all the stats are total cr@p, all that counts is the amount of goals scored. (and cheese). | |
