F*ck me pink and sideways.

I think the more interesting story on the BBC website is how all clubs in the top 4 leagues could be owned by American investor's in the next 5 to 10 years and how this would be incredible for other clubs who could do a WREXHAM you couldn't make it up the story is not open for comment strangely enough

There is the very reason why the BBC needs to be defunded by the public.

Oh right, so all clubs can make it to the Premier League then? Cool, a season could be spread over 4 years then, awarding the title like the Olympics.

Well based on Bluemoon, a start’s been made hasn’t it? I mean judging by the comments on here there aren’t actually any posters who pay their licence fee is there?

There is a lot of money sloshing around in the game and it really would not come as a shock to me if it transpired that certain BBS Sport executives were being 'rewarded' for pushing pro-USA narratives by entities wanting a full-blown US takeover of our beloved sport. I would not be at all surprised if 20 years from now the PL had been rebranded as PLS and operated as a franchise system.

I paid mine when I lived in the UK, and I will do when I'm back (if it still exists - the licence fee, not the country). The BBC as a whole offers a decent service (most TV, local radio, World Service, online services such as Bitesize and Click, on-demand services, etc.). It's just poorly managed at the corporate level, and BBC Sport and BBC News have lost the plot somewhat.

I don’t even think it’s BBC Sport pal. It’s BBC Football.

I agree, but there is no way that BBC Sport executives are completely oblivious to what's going on, especially with all the complaints they must receive on a daily basis. It's blatant, and someone at the top must have given it the green light.
