Quote: ccs "I've followed cricket all my life, but I only managed a couple of minutes watching the IPL and the "Hundred" before turning over.
The razzmatazz is not for me.
I watched the ManU v Benfica 1968 European Cup Final a few months ago, I really enjoyed it - even the memory of 'A' level chemistry the following morning.
The difference from now is quite simple, absolutely no replays, so you actually had to watch the game.
Now every wicket and every run is show a hundred times from a hundred different camera angles - not for me, I'm afraid.'"
..And this is the nub of the problem. Like you must be, ccs, I'm no spring chicken, but the game quite simply has to appeal to a younger audience who like the razzamatazz, love technology, multi-task, etc, etc.
As a lifelong FC supporter, can you believe I even found myself agreeing with a Rovers fan earlier in this thread (never in my lifetime!!), because he/she was talking sense - now that's embracing change for you
