    The Premier league is 25 years old today...

    The first ever goal came from a good old long throw into the area headed in by a big burley striker..

    Man U, Arsenal, Chelsea, Everton, Spurs and Liverpool all failed to win on the opening day back in 1992.

    Some chap called A.Shearer got a couple of crackers.

    How wold you rate its impact on the English game...

    Great for the multi-millionaires of the game likes the players and the agents but for the fans has it turned football away from something for them into a big business with money and profit the main game?

    Or made the football much more exciting and entertaining?

    It's done everything that it promised:
    • It's raised the standard of the national game.
    • The money made has trickled down and been invested in all levels of the game.
    • The money has been wisely invested in a grass-roots programme and building, not just nurturing, talent.
    • The use of innovative training and management techniques
    • Because of all this investment the England national team has become much feared world-beaters.
    We are talking about the Women's Premier league aren't we?
