Epl is good, but the rest of the football league (the other three leagues/72 teams) are exciting as well. Promotion/relegation battles and watching your local team is fun. Really low non league is fun as well. The standard is wayyy below what you'll see on tv, but it's footy at the end of the day, and being in a small ground with 300 people has a charm all its own.

Obviously in the real world the factor of money tends to stop this from happening, although cases like Leeds show that it's possible to be doing extremely well and go off a cliff in quick fashion... See: The Portsmouth Premiership and you hosed it up! Premiership and you hosed it up! subsequent seasons Championship and you hosed it up! Championship and you hosed it up! League one and you hosed it up! league one and you hosed it up! etc etc. New AFC Wimbledon have moved up pretty drat quickly.

"it doesnt matter if you get relegated so long as you beat wolves twice." is supposedly something someone said to a west brom manager once.
