I have to admit, whilst i don't neccesarily agree with all your suggestion's at least they are ideas, and as you have said, it does beat mindless remarks like that! It's very easy to criticise, yet so much harder to contribute. I really do have to question who it really is who highlights stupidity here?
Wage caps should be introduced, and perhaps we should look at the possibilty of a drafting system? Young English talent (which we should have quota's of) distributed amongst lower placed teams first, giving an opportunity for an even spread of talent and the prospect of a more competitive football league.
The original point made is very true, football is broken, and the greedy money grabs fat cats at the top are without doubt responsible
