Thing is when football sold it’s soul for money back in 1992/93 it was only ever going to go one way. The so called fair play rules would never have seen the light of day if certain ” big clubs ” hadn’t got so upset because they were not ruling the roost trophy and title wise as they had been in the first few years of the Premiership. Once Abramovich and then the Sheikh moved in and were allowed to do so, the old guard started squealing unfair. They sold out then got cranky when they could not keep winning most things every season, hence the fair play rules. It’s a load of bollocks, they got what they deserved whilst the rest of the football structure was left to rot.
