Too right Queenie. The ultimate progression of this reduction of competing clubs would be watching the last eight richest clubs in the world playing each other endlessly for - what? For how long will the TV companies keep showing Man City v Barcelona followed by PSG v Juventus before the repetition bores the viewer stupid and sends genuine football fans back to the terraces to watch live competitive football. The entertainment value of such pointless lack of competition is nil.

In a way I hope they get their way and bugger off and take their faux fans with them. The masses can then be left to watch their own town's team play and win - or lose - or draw.

Win or lose, have a booze.
