La Liga

Close to agreeing a deal to allow a league game to be played in Miami.

Beginning of the end, if this goes ahead.

In ten years time, half the fixture lists will probably be played in other countries.

All those "legacy" fans, as Americans like to call them, cut adrift in a chase for as many $ as possible.

It is drip, drip, drip

Inevitable and how this hasn't happened as of yet in the EPL, I dont know.

I am a hypocrite, I love the NFL and MLB games in London.

This is the thin end of the wedge though, the amount of American owners in the top 4 leagues must be creeping towards the number needed to get the changes they want

Chelsea owner had a right paddy a couple of years ago because his 'All Star' game proposal was rejected

Promotion and Relegation is not long for this world either

 

[PSumbler]

Just another example of football moving away from the traditional fanbase to one that encompasses people elsewhere.

One day the game will implode on itself and the clubs will turn around and realise that they have lost the people they then need most - the fans that were always there.

Create a super league quick, let it be played all over the world and leave the league system in the countries to those that deserve it more.
