Thing is they are all part of other federations (Uefa) etc and these federations work 'together' as different arms of a business -to make money.

Because the Romans sussed out the secret to keeping populations compliant in their empire was to give them 'Bread and Circuses' - governments encourage the same now  -football is one of the biggest pacifiers

Yes that is true mate, but the clubs hold the ultimate power here not them. If clubs banded together on such matters they would win, if uefa etc plays hardball we will create our own super league, CL and so forth.

As you said its just greedy cunts being greedy as always.

I dont think clubs would do that tbh -nationalism is bound up in so many clubs Royal Madrid for example funded by the Spanish govt. and none of them would be first to put their heads above the parapet and risk losing TV money. Especially when with the pandemic, it is their main source of income

Nahh clubs wont do it sadly, but they should. In the end the clubs paying the price not those greedy bastards. Their hunger for money at all cost is a bottomless pit I swear.

Yeah,  and as if those yank owners of liverpool or United with their grand master plan actually gave a flying fuck about Fleetwood or Stevenage. Do they fuck ! -they wouldnt bat an eyelid if lower league clubs went under.

Dont mind International if serves a purpose.. this doesn't. The timing is so wrong. To many games in short amount of time then you have random ones thrown in

I to am not loving international football premiership is footballs butter and bread.
