*Prediction Champion 20/21 & 21/22*
Some very interesting points.
But who can put real pressure on governing bodies like Uefa and FIFA to force change?
Fans can influence their clubs but not these sorts of bodies.
Reviews like the current one led by Tracey Crouch can only work at the national level. But the Premier League and other affiliated bodies can't act independently of Uefa and FIFA.
Even the combined might of the strongest European clubs isn't powerful enough notwithstanding the fact that their interests are motivated by profit not the betterment of football. And quite ironically their latest push with the Super League has managed to portray the governing bodies as noble defenders of the sport when in fact they are mainly the root problem.
