Precisely. It won't happen, but yes I'd have a ban on Internationals (particularly friendlies) during the season, why would I change my mind on that?

As for Sky vs FA/FIFA/EUFA, it's not an either or, it's both. The Sky money fosters demand for success at club level, rule changes on foreign players are the governing bodies response to that demand.
