I'm not really a football fan these days, got put off years ago, mainly by the cost. Taking my lads to a game, 10yrs ago would costs £150 easy.
One of the main arguments by UK supporters against this, is it destroys, local identities, history etc.
To me it clearly demonstrates, UK supporters really don't factor any longer and if they never paid another penny in season tickets or gate money it wouldn't matter. Premiership Clubs make more money with world TV rights and sales of shirts/kits memorabilia, than ever they do in the UK.
Like much of sport nowadays, it's not really about the sport it's just about money, making more money!
