"this decision is exceptional and shall not be seen as setting a precedent".

Said while setting a very clear precedent.

Floodgates are now opened. I give it no more than 5 years before a Premier League game is played somewhere like China or Malaysia.

Pure greed. Plain and simple.
 
I can just picture us getting promoted again and getting Man Utd at home on opening day, only to find out it's being played in Beijing or something..
 
Was always going to happen (sadly) once the American sports started playing in Europe. Interesting times ahead to see how it develops over the next 5-10 years.

if it dos take off, it will IMO start the decline here of the success the PL has had for the last 30 odd years, fans wont like it, and the money people will.
 
Maybe a good thing for EFL clubs if prem fans start watching and supporting their local team instead.

Don't like the idea myself, but it certainly hasn't affected the NFL back in the states by bringing games to the UK.
 
What do NFL fans think of having one of their eight home games being played in Europe? When you only get 8 games on your season ticket it's a big thing to lose one.

well, its becoming clear the states is in a bit of a state, dont think it"ll go down too well in Townhill, Splott, Peckham, geordieland or prts of Manc and liverpool.
