Whatever happens and going by past decisions etc then I would imagine the Premier League and Sky will make a final decision to put money first and general society second ...........IF they can get away with it?
I would have been saying the same thing up until recently. I have often referred to Sky as $ky and modern football as £00tball
However, a pause for thought, was when the Government should have but didn't cancel fixtures in football (and other sports) and the sports themselves stepped in and did it. That includes the Premier League and the Champions League, both the richest of all leagues and the ones with much £ to lose
Still think, no matter when, this season should be concluded before they start a new one, even if that means next year it is completed and we then have a few mini tournaments, or concentrate on cup matches.
Contract wise, it would be a litigation nightmare not promoting teams, not giving the leaders their due and also relegation could be a major legal problem.
I may sound cynical but that's the way they have made me through sheer greed since the commencement of the Premier League/Sky partnership in 1992 and if it wasn't for my love of the Villa, then I would have turned my back on it a long time ago.
Yes, feel the same, compounded by being moved from my seat this season. That made me feel very detached. Told myself I didn't care anymore, but then, when we are losing, I am sitting there seething, and same as all of you, my passion in discussions on this forum are clear.
I do wonder what the breaking point will be though, for many of us.
