"im sure im going to get slated, but i just dont get football, 22 blokes kicking a ball about, then rolling around on the ground when touched, and getting paid millions" Is it the wages that bother you, OP??

It’s fairly simple, if you put the ball in the oppositions net that’s a goal, the team with the most goal wins, whoever does that most over a season wins the kicky ball concert, they then pack up and do then start again 7 weeks later for another season. |

What sports do you prefer? Wages are fuelled by the market, same as any other sports, it’s a short career too. |

They earn a lot of money, clearly. But ultimately it’s a private industry, and look at what support and business it generates? Look at what the ESL proposal did - the Govt got involved. Look at how many fans go to games week in week out. How many watch it globally.
You rarely hear people moan about wages of an actor when they pick up £20m for a film.

1. Not necessarily blokes.
2. Not all players roll around.
3. Very few get paid millions.
Apart from that you're spot on
