LaudrupsPatrickBoots 13,510 Posted February 15, 2018 Share Posted February 15, 2018 I'll watch any football I can get tbh. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
MisterC 12,272 Posted February 15, 2018 Share Posted February 15, 2018 I'm only interested in watching Rangers and while I do watch the odd EPL and cl games I'm not that bothered. Truth be told I'm thoroughly disillusioned with football with the way it's so money driven and corruption thrives. If it wasn't for Rangers I'd have no real interest. I like rugby and that gives me an escape from football. In some ways it's a better game and with Glasgow warriors having a decent team and Scotland doing ok it's enjoyable enough. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vision 16,729 Posted February 15, 2018 Share Posted February 15, 2018 Watch everybody in here scramble to watch the world cup in june Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shuggy 1,308 Posted February 20, 2018 Share Posted February 20, 2018 I'll watch Match of the Day and Sportscene, though may FF the boring matches. I have BT Sport but not Sky so still watch quite a few CL matches live. Europa League I may watch highlights no more. Big games like cup finals I will watch.

gsa 3,906 Posted February 20, 2018 Share Posted February 20, 2018 Aside from Rangers I mainly watch rugby. Very rarely watch a whole 90 minutes of football that's not us. Rugby walks all over football for player commitment and effort. To become wealthy through rugby you've got to be at the top, or very near the top. That creates a level of competition you just don't see in football any more. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Honestly, this Daily Star style image of football is what has turned me off largely. Rugby still carries a degree of class with it's players, barring the odd exception. You're as likely to hear about Rugby players dating royalty, as you are a footballers spit roasting some orange faced, sell a story, tramp.

Rugby (union not league) has worked very hard to create that image and resembles smeltic in that respect. they get a way with loads and explain it by "just high spirits, old boy". I'm not keen on what modern football has become either but rugby union carries far too much unpleasant baggage for me ever to give them a free pass.

Gman36 3,455 Posted February 23, 2018 Share Posted February 23, 2018 Saturation point too. They're spreading the games too thinly. Nearly every day there's a game on. Impossible to care every single day about an individual game that most of the time will not have any particularly big impact. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swagger 7,970 Posted February 23, 2018 Share Posted February 23, 2018 Heading that way myself. Watch Rangers and a bit of English Premiership but even losing interest in the Champions League - it’s getting too predictable. Watch next to no Scottish football ( unless it involves us of course) as I couldn’t give a shit about it - I would love to see us leave Scottish football but we are probably stuck with it. As for that international shite ! Waste of time Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
