I've been listening to the Future Of Football podcast that Mark Chapman is doing at the moment, and thinking of some ideas as to how "we" could use the current crisis to force a change in the game for the better.
Some questions arise during that process - I think I know what my answer is to them, and it'll be fairly obvious from the phrasing of the questions, but interested in what others think.
If you're really unlucky this might feed into a blog post at some point in the next week or so, and I haven't done one of them for over two years...
So:
- do we want our clubs to be able to spend whatever they can, or do we just want them to be able to be competitive in their league?
- do we want broadcasters to be banned from televising matches at 3pm on a Saturday?
- do we have to have 92 professional clubs?
- is it a bad thing to have a 40-club (2 divison) national league, with the rest being regionalised?
- do we need to have a 2020/21 season, or can we just finish the one that started in 2019 in time for the Euros in 2021?
That's enough to be going on with...
