@Stroller mentioned something similar in another thread. The beautiful game has gone.
I donât think weâll see another Wigan style FA Cup win in my lifetime.
They used to be ten a penny. Southampton 76, that crap in 1980, Coventry 87 and Wimbledon 88. All within a 12 year span.
Just gone to shit now. Inter to save football?
You can take it down the pyramid too. Salford and ultimately Wrexham story is unravelling this way.
Qatar with the World Cup success. UAE on the cusp of the CL.
Please Inter, leave the speck of hope that remains by doing something.

For a second I thought this was Pep.
Footballs finished now.
The start was Ken Bates selling out to an illegal oligarch.
Soccer Saturday is just awful now .
Iâm afraid it needs City to be docked points and relegated under the FFP in order for the game to change but itâs not going to happen.
Saka âŚâŚ 300 grand a week âŚâŚ I mean really ?
Good luck to him , indeed good luck to anyone getting that wage , the agents and tv demand have inflated wages and indeed transfers but seriously, is any footballer worth 300k .
Where is it going to end ?
A million a week player ? It sounds way off but in this current world anything is possible.
Not for me anymore, sadly .
The good times are gone .
I thought it was Ten Hag
Loool Ten Hag showing his true colors
Ronaldo already on more than that and Messi about to follow.
And Fiorentina
Thatâs not here is it ?
Sorry I mustâve missed the bit where you said in the UK or at Arsenal.
I eagerly await the backtracking when City are found guilty of cooking their books.
Even with a decent price for akanji their back line alone cost over 150m
Glad that United didnât do the domestic cup double, they arenât that good so it would have annoyed me.
City are comfortably the best side in the world, so if they win a treble it bothers me a lot less.
Iâm very much of the view that if City win something it doesnât really count so it doesnât really bother me anywhere near as much if they win something compared to a real club that are among our peers like United or Liverpool.
Cityâs wins count but ultimately I donât have the dislike for them as I do for United and Chelsea etcâŚ
The way theyâre travelling under Pep though unfortunately it wonât take long before they overtake us as the 3rd most successful club in English football history.
But the wins must count. Even only from the point of stopping the opposing team in the final of lifting the trophy.
In reality as an Arsenal fan they denied us lifting the title.
It might work on one level denying a rival at a push but it simply doesnât when your team is on the receiving end.
Denial just makes people feel better about the situation, wins count.
Be monumental for City if they win the treble this campaign to go with the domestic treble of 2019.
I donât agree. I wasnât anything like as gutted as when we used to lose out to Man United, because United are a peer. City are just a cheat code. Then winning trophies isnât an achievement in the same way it is for United, Liverpool or us for example.
