RE: How thrilling are the big domestics competitions in Europe?
I also do believe that some things are also related with the phases in our lives. I used to watch sports all over the weekend and a was interested in a broad spectrum of sports.
But that was in the time was I was the lonely ruler of the remote. Than after living together, I had to gave up some sports because I wasn't the single ruler anymore, I did have to compromise now and then.
And now I do have 2 kids and I am glad if I can watch some TV during the weekend, let alone to follow a completion intensely.
Got some stats! Not a massive decline in viewing figures in the UK, but it has been slowly edging down

Would be interesting to see this broken down by demographics
Indeed that would be interesting. I did try to look up the same for the Belgian competition but failed to do so.
More than probably also there will be a decline.
Which is maybe good. Other sports are getting more practitioner and viewers.
When I was a kid, it was normal than more than 90% of the kids did choice football as sport. Now there is broader spectrum of sports they can choose from.
Still both my kids did (voluntarily) choice football :)
