Why wont die hard GAA fans admit football these days is muck?

Diarmuid Connolly used to shoot from range, what I am talking about I wouldn't describe as being from range at all.

Having a go from the 45 or from wide on the left is one thing, but I'm seeing players central not far from the D not even looking at the posts.

Its bizarre, the point of recycling used to be to hold the ball until you created separation in the scoring zone. Now they have that separation and still don't shoot.

One highlight in a seventy plus game isn’t a good watch.

It’s not entertainment, and you know it.

Rest of the game was to put it mildly- turgid.

Interesting point here . Would a shot clock be worth introducing once the ball enters the opponents half . ? Worth a trial at least . Say 120 seconds once the first pass passes the half way line .

-) probably eould speed up the game

-) probably would make it an ultra defensive game .

-) team like mayo would thrive as basically for them it’s 100 miles an hour once they get it past half way .

What about the tactical nous the naunce of control, getting the better over a team who are better on paper? Hurling have the opposite problem too many scores.

At least football teams can show some tactical intelligence, to get victory against teams that are slightly better than them.

How would it be done at club level?

Almost every Galway supporter would disagree with you. 90% of us are bored to tears and couldn't care less whether they win or lose at the moment. Its septic stuff to watch and its not just Galway. Even watching the All Ireland champions is a snoozefest.

The structure of the competitions doesn't help any team experiment however, as there's no margin for losses. Once you lose 2 games in either competition you're either done for or in serious trouble.

At least we used to be able to fall back on the club game to get some entertainment but all the little copy and paste merchant coaches have brought the IC sh1te there too. This years club championships had some of the worst games of sport I've ever had the displeasure of watching. One particular game went down to the wire but people had lost interest and for the final 15 mins 80% of people were on their phones or had left.

Read the last line my friend.... tells you everything

My friend , its people like you who can't see the wood from the trees.

I wouldn't waste my time engaging with you.

My friend, mo chara, pal, comrade, buddy. Im not going against ye.

But if you are going to make a statement 8 times and then contradict yourself, dont be shocked if people mention it is all.

Problems in football from a spectators point of view.

Boring...one team handpasses it around for 1+mins with nothing happening, then other team do the same.

Solutions....

Get rid of handpass, no forwards allowed in their own half. Enforce 4 step rule.

Radical **** man..

Oh and of course ...a definition (and implementation!) of a legal tackle..🙄

Veerry devensive post dude...I gave my opinion from a former spectators view. I'm not trying anything.??

And this is why this will be my last post on an opinion forum on boards (I'll stick to the technical forums). You can't argue with stupid.
