The beginning of the end........
These proposals - when they come in - signal the beginning of the end of footy as we know it, for lower league teams especially......
https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/54499998 We have to believe them, when they say that this has been discussed since 2017 and are not being used now, it these terrible financial times...... Thoughts...????? :( |
Re: The beginning of the end........
It's no coincidence to me that they are now offering 25% of future income and scrapping parachute payments when it has been well documented that the last TV deal was the big one from now on forward exaggerated with the pandemic all future income will decline, it's not as they put it to come in for another 2 years by which time if this farce of no fans allowed in many clubs will have folded anyway.

American Billionaires trying to ruin the game to fill their own pockets.
Less games allowing more preseason tournaments in the US, it doesn't matter that the league cup goes, a few more teams drop out of the league etc, as long as the meaningless US pre-season 'tournaments' have more time to take place. |

Andy Holt admits on twitter having gained access to the documents about the Project Big Picture and reading them it made him sick to the pit of his stomach. Behind back meetings FA boss involved as well as Rick Parry makes me sick too no wonder they weren't bothered about Bury and Macclesfield they were planning to jettison 8 teams out of the pyramid no consultation so it was 2 less to worry about, the problem is this won't go away without being independently regulated the greed and corruption in the game knows no bounds reminiscent of gangster tactics.

Re: The beginning of the end........
To me Parry has always been a ******,

Re: The beginning of the end........
You're right Andy the corruption doesn't have any boundries, not at any level after the fiasco over the venue for the World Cup and the charges not being brought against certain European clubs until it was too late to be brought before the courts. As the old saying goes "the fish stinks from the head down"

Re: The beginning of the end........
What a surprise not exclusively breaking news top English clubs in secret meetings to form breakaway European super League bailout my behind, let them go and after this Covid crisis is over what's left should go it alone.

Re: The beginning of the end........
Like a game of chess this, or at least stratego, with move and counter move.
European CL group games are very boring, why not have more of the same format? Football eating itself. |
