Rumination time
Why is the name change considered a turning point anyway? The format is the same
The clubs broke off and started a new league in 92. I think because of tv rights
>sunderland is a bigger club than city
It was the start of the true professional era. TV deals with massive money. Sure the players in the 80s made ok money but not retirement money. And now clubs could buy in foreign players and hire fulltime staff and build fancy training grounds.
But between 92 and the mid 2000s it was still relatively poor, the only team with big money was ManU
sky marketing
>Footballers before 92 weren't proffesionals
Really Joggins the Noggins
marketing + people who started watching football in 2005 and are too lazy to learn history
blatantly not what I said
>Figures cited in the official history of the PFA show that only eight players in England earned basic salaries of £50,000 per year in 1980-81, but this rose to 41 players by 1984-85 and steadily thereafter.
Most players from the 80s worked normal jobs when they retired.
Not really. They were vastly richer than ever before. Blackburn, Newcastle, Leeds, Arsenal, Liverpool all spent big money
