Indeed, does the tax payer also pay for upkeep, I’m sure the FA will pay for its own upkeep. I was miffed my tax went to pay for Wemberlee and handing West Am a stadium, I’ll be raging if my money went to the rags. Can’t imagine anyone south of the border wants to pay for a new Hampden or Pittodrie. The once richest club in the world, owned by billionaires shouldn’t need a penny. It might work in the NFL and other yank sports but they can F off here. And if it was City I’d be against it too, this transcends club affiliation.
