Just 3 pages for a crucial derby game. I can remember 20 pages a day for a game like this. The fuck is happening guys? Is football like dying and shit? Or we're just getting old? Are these new generations following any sport?
I believe Agnelli was correct in his assertion there. I am very biased since I can only see what my kids are doing and others in there schools etcetera. But it's a very different world to the one I grew up in. Whenever there was a break, the kids ran out and did sports and came back sweaty and with ruined clothes for next class. Then puberty hit and everyone behaved as they were on drugs. Walking past schools nowadays, kids are out playing but very few do sports and when they are home they are collecting pokemons, playing on their phone or watching TV or perhaps playing some outdoor game.
I have a really nice football pitch next to me. Seeing this grass as a kid would have made my cry of happiness every day. I scarcely see anyone there. Once or twice a week there's a team training there but that's it. If anyone is there it's someone cutting the grass and fixing the lines or someone playing with their dog.
It will take a long time and I think football will continue to be the number one sport but I also think it will decline. Slowly. I hope we will run the club snesibly for the forthcoming decades because the budgets are inflated by external investors (it's not something new, I know).
Concerning the game, I hope for a draw but expect a loss.
