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.
The proliferation of foreign players in the Plastic League is not in the interest of the FA, the PL purely runs on the basis of making as much money as possible for its now usually foreign owners. You can't have your cake and eat it...not wanting fixtures during a league season, not wanting players called up for national squads, then have some soundings about the lack of home players in the Leeds squad. If LUFC came out with a statement saying "in the future we will only sign players who have a cat in hell's chance of becoming international standard"...that am sure would give you something else to moan about...
