🎙️ Go Football Podcast – Episode 13: Games Gone? Old Skool vs New Skool Football ⚽

Is the game we love changing too much… or changing for the better?

In Episode 13, we tackle a hot topic in the football world: Has the game gone soft? This episode dives into the ever-growing debate between the Old Skool and New Skool approaches to football — especially in the grassroots game.

🗣️ Join us as we discuss:

✅ The rise of "softer" rule changes – are they for protection or limiting the game’s spirit?

✅ Old Skool football values like hard tackles, grit, and no-nonsense play vs the New Skool emphasis on skill, safety, and support.

✅ How modern coaching, technology, and new FA guidelines are reshaping the grassroots landscape.

✅ Are we protecting young players or holding them back?

✅ Real stories from the pitch and insight from referees, coaches, and parents across generations.

Whether you're nostalgic for mud and crunching tackles, or passionate about development and safeguarding – this episode is for you.
