There were some great comments on the Guardian article on this and they backed up what your saying.
There just isn't a sense of community any more or any sort of affinity with the players or teams.
I've got Sky Sports but i haven't watched a game this year, i just seem to have fallen out of love with the game as it seems to be turning into a non-contact sport. Couple all that with the blatant cheating that goes on and i just can't be bothered with it anymore.
I used to take holidays from work when England were playing but the half-hearted efforts the players seem to put in for the National team convinced me i shouldn't even bother watching them.
