[QUOTE="Coja Petrus Uscan, post: 1332750, member: 12967"] Slightly off topic - something I was thinking of today. Up until about the 50s sport was much more local. My local football team regularly had about 10-25% of the town turn up for games. And all the players were local. And all the players in the opposition were likely local. Now only about 2% of the town turns up to watch players who are mostly from somewhere else; playing in [Company Name] League at the [Company Name] FC. Sport is now a nothing. I never watched much, but I became so bored of the same clubs always winning, flush with big money without a single player from their home town. In school there was a handful of national clubs no one had any connection to who everyone supported. This trend runs heavily through society. The big man down the coal mine would have had his options open with ladies and be married of to a lithe, young, feminine girl. Now many of those same girls are diverting their attention to some DJ from the big city, or some F-list celeb who slipped into their DMs. Same with corporates. [/QUOTE]
