    The thing these dumb fucks don't get is, and they keep dangling this as the main "reason" for this league, is that fans want to see big matches like Man United play Real Madrid which is true, they are great and special, but only because they are rare. If we see them every single week, it loses its lustre.

    I want to see the underdogs, I want to see Leicester win it, I want to see a club that was in the 2nd or third division a few years ago battle their way up and compete with the big boys, and have a run at a European title.

    That's what it should be all about.

    • They don’t care about you, peasant. They want to market this to Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, China, etc. Streamed on Disney+NBQ00

    • I don't give much of a shit about football. Not a football guy. Followed Toon a bit in the 90s, but then that whole Man U buy out thing poisoned everything.Nairn
    • It's got nothing to do with jumpers for goalposts, it's KUWTK or Pop Idol for blokes and all of it is detestable.Nairn
    • It's not Pop Idol. That at least gives an underdog a chance. That was a poor comparison. I meant the pageantry.Nairn
