I seem like a bit of an exception, I admit, but I'll watch almost anything
On a related topic, had a fairly heated exchange on FB last night with a nose about Chumps League versuse European Cup. He reckons the competition is so much better than it used to be and we would never have had a chance of winning it now. Typical fucking nose I guess trying to downgrade our achievement. But am I alone in thinking that having 58 chances to progress in a competition against teams who could have finished as low as 4th in their domestic divisions and include Rangers or Celtic is easier than a straight knockout competition against the champions of every domestic league in Europe.
I love all football. I grew up with SkySports and as much as I see how overpriced it is and how they dominate the market, I'd be gutted if we didn't have it anymore.I don't really mind kick off time changes
The CL group stages are a procession and "filler" and I think we'd have cruised something like that back then.The knockout rounds are harder due to having more of the big boys in there from the big leagues. I tend to think Chelsea and maybe Arsenal would both have won it in the original format. For one thing it would have been rare for them to have been knocked out by other English teams.
