Keeping ahead of the pack
One reason given by the Premier League for considering this now infamous, and possibly shelved, 39th game was the need to do it before anyone else did.
Really? Does any other League have the world wide recognition of the English league?
Can you imagine TV companies wanting to pay big bucks for Levante v Getafe? Will the percieved Asian cash cow queue all night for tickets to see Siena v Reggiana? What about the flushed arabs? Will they not be tittilated at the thought of Energie Cottbus playing VfL Bochum in a desert near them?
Nope, this is all about English clubs.
Slow news week or what?
