    Wake up time or not....

    With Man City being emptied from the CL will this be a landmark moment in the whole sport washing going on in the EPL ,I wonder what it would be like if these teams were run on gate money alone,I’m sure I read from Deloitte or someone that most premiership clubs could easily continue by letting everyone in free and just using TV and sponsorship revenue...personally I think most of the EPL is overrated....

    Something I've noticed is that most (Not all) people that go to see teams like Dundee arnae really interested in the EPL.

    Guys that don't go to live games seem to enthuse about about it.

    Boys at my golf club could name lpool, Chelsea, city and man United's top 40 first team squad players but couldn't tell you what league, raith, falkirk or e Fife play in.

    As for the money thing I think that ship has sailed and possibly man city will get decision overturned.

    ‘These teams run on gate money alone’? There’s probably not even a team in our league run on gate money.

    The point I was making was the difference in revenue between gate receipts/and other streams i.e TV ,kit sponsors and the like.
    If Dundee ran on gate money alone they wouldn’t be able to switch a light or put the heating on...

    Example.....I sat and watched ICT v gers under 20s today, decent game in the conditions and one of the worst sending off decisions I have ever seen.

    Glanced up at arsenal v Newcastle.

    Watched Arsenal v Newcastle while I was practicing some new songs this afternoon. What a boring game it was, four goals but boring as.

    Things that you sing

    Just one of the things I do to take my mind off the disgraceful state of our club and the team that represents it on the park.
