All he said was he'd give him a hand - maybe you can provide a detailed cost analysis of getting the stadium back up to scratch.
I'm sure the Allams will be interested even if nobody else is.

Sounds like Sky are prepared to honour their £40m (?) a year contract with SL until the end of next year, even advancing payments if needed to keep the sport solvent.
Good for them, it could so easily have gone the other way.

On the haveyouseencarolvordermanrecently scale, I’d give it a 4 and the use of centred aligned text across the whole page a 7.

I'm pretty sure if we collaborated we could do much better. With my analytical skills and imagination and your world class pedantry it'd be a winner

I can’t imagine what you mean but your first sentence is a hanging comparator.

If it was something vague (and left aligned or justified) about ‘preliminary discussions about rationalising the structure of the professional game’ I might think it was interesting. Diving straight into listing the teams/mergers with suggested names for the new ones undermines this document’s credibility somewhat, imo. They could have at least used Shuddersfax for the giggles. I quite like team names that sound like pubs though. If Manchester gets the Red Lion (I remember Withington had a Red Lion, a White Lion and a Golden Lion back in day), what’d we have... White Hart maybe? Or Hull Tribal?
