It's fucking mad.

I mean, there are some teams that would just NEVER be moved that have multiple decades of heritage (if someone tried to move the Chicago Bears, hell would break loose), but owners have held teams for ransom trying to get taxpayer money to fund a new stadium.

If the Americanisation of English football continues at its current rate and is not checked, then I think this could possibly happen within the next 20 years. The total and utter pursuit of money with this lot has no boundaries or morals.
