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

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.

>>75882562
But between 92 and the mid 2000s it was still relatively poor, the only team with big money was ManU

Really Joggins the Noggins

>>75881716
marketing + people who started watching football in 2005 and are too lazy to learn history

>>75882708

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
