    European breakaway league

    Great news but lets hope this pushes the government to bring in the often threatened regulation of football. The football authorities and club owners have had enough chances and have done nothing meaningful.

    They could indeed but would be odd timing given that others that have tried it have deemed it not to be commercially advantageous due to the costs involved and the decrease in sponsorship as a result of lower viewing figures when not on a mainstream platforms. Its a big jump from a couple of...
