What do we expect sky to say when newcastle win the league in 5 years time? That it wasn't a fair competition? That it is a disgrace? The game has gone?It's been oft-repeated already multiple times throughout the thread but is probably worth repeating again, large aspects of the football media are just as much relying on the Premier league gravy train as any other party and the quote you higlighted here and the contrasting response to the super league proposals really demonstartate that ethics are a secondary consideration, or just another story to spin for clicks and attention.
The 'code for moving on' line is particuarly good and will be interesting to see if that plays out. Thankyou for highlighting that aspect.
They would lose viewers and subscribers.
They will have to put a positive spin on it, like they did for chelsea and man city. They will focus on the brilliance of the managers, or perhaps an outstanding player. Rather than mafia hits and head chopping.
