I venture to suggest RR that when the Financial Directors of the BIG Clubs get into their pecuniary mode and rub their grubby hands together, the farthest thought in their collective minds will be for the plight, or even the survival of the Morecambe and Hartlepool of this world !.
Unfortunately, this status quo is unlikely to change very little if at all whilst those who control our game also reap personal and corporate fortunes from their involvement in this fiscal merry-go-round.
The love of money, whilst being evil, as a reliable source would decree, is as prevalent in our game as in every other profit making organisation, and the inherent weakness of man in respect to feathering his own nest at the expense of his poorer neighbour will always direct his behaviour.
Now there's a philosophical thought to end my year on !...
