My interest in soccer has completely declined over the past year particularly. The combination of the diving along with the decline in quality in my opinion of premier league players has caused me to loose interest. I used to watch as many matches as possible, these days I just watch Arsenal & Ireland, watching anything else feels like a chore.
Having said that tho I was delighted to see Ireland beat Italy in the Euros and qualify the knock out stages. Hopefully we can get revenge on France (for the 2010 World Cup Qualification) on Sunday but I am not very confident that we will.
