- if the 75,000 people who attended the match in Manchester, earlier, were prepared to sponsor a Police Officer, instead of one of the players, they would, theoretically get 52 times more value for money ...

Cut the football players wages, factoring in the Sky Sports subscriptions, etc, & we could possibly fund a viable police force
Do we get to follow them around for 90 minutes a week for entertainment purposes?
