The athleticism has come on in leaps and bounds, but mercifully hasn't been accompanied by the cynicism. Players were allowed to run with the ball and take opponents on. They were allowed to try and play incisive passes, rather than just square five yard passes to keep the ball. It was quite refreshing.
I first read that as:
“…I watched with a semi out of interest”.
That’s the spirit!
