If it goes ahead I think football on TV may drop slightly, depending on the deals thrashed out by the broadcasting companies. But 'online' & 'pay per view' will probably go through the roof. There are millions of people out there willing to throw £20 (or more) per game at clubs/services to watch their team, and other teams, no matter how unexciting the football is

. . . and iadom is spot on with the vultures waiting to pounce, not just the legal ones, football agents with an interest in the best price for their 'clients' will be clamoring for more in an 'elite' competition*


*not that there's any competitiveness in a league with no relegation for the big boys
