A thought on football… Man Utd, who haven’t been a great team for many years, have now bought three (more) expensive midfielders. Aston Villa, who won a European trophy, have to sell to avoid punishment. The system, which was supposed to impose financial stability, now does everything to preserve the advantage of the top teams. There is almost no jeopardy for them and no path to the top for the rest. It works if you see the Premier League as basically five or six famous teams, with a supporting cast who don’t really matter. And that, I suspect, is a lot of people, around the world. If your passion is solely for the famous clubs and the superstar players, then fine. There’s a half-and-half scarf waiting for you. But for the rest of us, there is a gnawing feeling of disconnect and disappointment, exacerbated by the actions of FIFA. When I grew up, watching from the terraces at Upton Park, football was a game that belonged to the fans. Does it still?
