I think football could learn a lot from rugby and especially the role of the referee. I'm not a big fan of egg chasing but I've been told you can consume alcohol during the game, the equivalent of giving a maniac a machine gun at a football match.
it is not JUST Murdoch's Sky that is to blame for the demise of the game .There seems to be no sense of sporting values held by those whose behaviour shapes the way we are to perceive the game . Start with Sepp Blatter and Michel Platini and then listen to the comments from the star players and their managers when the are asked to comment on fair play, respect for officials etc etc .
You can drink in a football ground, even binge drink before kick off and at half time, but you can't do it whilst sat in your seat in a responsible manner.
