Got to agree with TVJ on this.
Derbys, important Euro games, still up there but most league games ain't all that.
The caveat to that is that most Prem games are the same.
Personally, a lot of this comes from our failure to qualify for the Champions League as we all know that's is when the best atmosphere was always created.

But most rival fans will not be there at Euro/CL games. They are talking about the league and cup games. Most grounds have this problem, it's just the way the modern supporter goes about his trip to the match.
Flick back 15 years and no football tourists to grounds and it was totally different.
Its the same at goodison, Liverpool, United...some cup games the place is rocking (I am sure its the same at other grounds) But for the rest of the time it ebbs and flows.
