Shake down the thunder
It most definitely is across the whole of the 18 teams!
People back then were saying that compared to the 90's & early 2000's, the 70's & 80's were more entertaining.
What a miserable era we are in......................what a miserable club we follow.
Yep. I do not know about the nostalgia goggles. There have been champions (no not you Bedford) and wonderful games most weeks in every decade I have watched the game.
I am so biased, at times I struggle to enjoy our games and even after a good win, I rarely consider it champagne footy. Win, lose or draw I am usually reduced to a puddle of nervous exhaustion.
I really hope Horse completes the transition from flooding to a more balanced game plan. Maybe it was Horse being stubborn but we hung on to the throwing players in to the D50 for far too long.
I reckon I am better judging standards when I go to or watch a game where I am more or less neutral. Obviously nowadays many players tend to be more natural athletes than natural footballers. There are still great examples of footy skill and acumen in every game, just as there has always been.
By the way Tedeski - I am delighted to see you're still at Sunnybrook Farm.
