The Anonymous Widower

An Unfair Playing Field

I’m not talking about the proposal to use artificial pitches, but the fact that Mancester City have made a record loss.

In a few years time, the teams that win will be those that have the biggest budgets and pay the highest wages.

Surely, we can create a fairer system than this. Even if we upset the sheikhs, foreign and currupt businessmen, who don’t understand the offside rule and dubious oligarchs, who want to own our game.

How about these new rules?

1. Penalties can only be given to the home side.
2. Every player registered by a club, can sit on the bench.
3. If a player earns more than a million pounds a game, he can’t be shown a red card.
4. The club with the largest budget, gets all the gate and TV receipts.
5. Fifty percent of matches are played overseas.
6. Fans who earn less than £20,000 a year are not allowed to buy tickets.
7. Clubs don’t have to release players for international matches.
8. No relegation.
9. The winner of the FA Cup is drawn by lots. Clubs put any number of tickets into the pot at £1,000,000 a time, for the prize money.
