    Oh yeh, the largest sport in the world surely got it wrong, they should copy us who have struggled to export our sports to any other nations…

    That aside, we should stop pretending football should have some aim to be like the NFL, that only leads to the super league and moving franchises and all that awful shit.

        It’s not just about winning, football is deeper than that for most people, the clubs have deep links to their communities, hundreds of thousands of people support their local clubs in the lower leagues, with promotion and relegation key to this. You need to understand that this is a massive cultural difference that you in the kindest possible way probably wouldn’t understand, football isn’t just entertainment like going to the cinema, it runs a whole lot deeper and means a whole lot more to people in the UK
