Jonathan Wilson elegantly describes why many, myself included, have been falling out of love with modern football, little by little. The best part of the article describes it really well, in my opinion:

“Those traditional fans have gradually seen the sport their families have perhaps supported for generations change. (…) Lip service is paid to fans and their devotion, but increasingly they are exploited and marginalised and their importance to the club is diminished.”
