How time flies! The Beeb has put together this retrospective, which I found very absorbing.

Nothing to celebrate. The Premier League has ruined the competition the old First Division provided. Just a few teams with moneyed backers win it and the overpaid players have turned it into a game for softies as they roll around screaming and getting up to antics that 30+ years ago was abhorred and booed when foreign teams visited the UK and did these things. Rule changes have taken away the physicalness of it and it is no longer a "man's" game.

Actually I am. They don't go in for the silly antics of the men, rolling around etc. at the slightest touch and they always are happy and polite when being interviewed unlike the surly, "I don't want to waste my precious time talking to you" and rapidly turning away with a miserable look on their faces at the end of the interview". Totally impolite!
