Sky banging on about racism now minutes after Souness was banging on about how "Britain is a proper country" which by implication was saying America is not. Loves a national stereotype does Souness.

The two English clubs who’ve been financially dopped the most, the first to drop out.

I hope this episode is used to ensure they can’t sponsor themselves for millions over market rates (or at all) and they are reigned in.

They aren’t as desperate for the money.

This has American handprints all over it tbf, sucked a few gullible people in along the way but if you cast your mind back it was Liverpool & Man Utd who were leading the thing when it first came out

I hope Levy doesn’t do anything rash.

Where does this leave Levy?
Besides blaming Joe.

This gives you hope that the game hasn't completely gone.

Something feels odd about it - they are not dumb enough to think the backlash wasn't on the cards.
Hundreds of thousands are spent on market research.

Levy is only in danger if Joe Lewis wasn’t behind signing up to it. If Joe Lewis have the ok Levy won’t be going anywhere.

So we have

Woodward leaving
Juve chairman leaving
Mail reporting FSG/Glaziers looking to sell
Perez looking to sue

 

[Baleforce]

Govt rushing out negative stories under the cover of this.

Mercer fired
2.6m press briefing room not actually going to be used anymore

 

[Seedy Ron]

What a clam.

That's the saviour of football you're talking about.
