Masters champions parachute payments....
Er hello I am not sure the rest of the Championship or @EFL would agree with that.
It screws competitive balance. Everyone knows that

Another fun statistical contrast for tomorrow: Man City probably spend more on lawyers in a month than Orient do on players in a year
Love being part of this. Excellent episode this week as we discuss who would be part of the best ever Wimbledon FC Premier League XI
In a scary development, tonight I am feeding my family haggis for the first time
Independent Regulator anyone?
ICYMI...
Here I am on Joe Media on behalf of @fairgameuk.bsky.social explaining why we don't just need a football regulator, but why we need one with strong powers...

We need that movie to happen!

I try to keep positive. Without hope what else have we got?

Superb result from a great team
Great news - huge credit to Ellen Clifford and @publiclawproject.bsky.social for seeing this through. Hopefully this will finally kill off the absurd & oft-repeated claim that cutting people's benefits somehow makes it easier for them to access employment support
24 hours before one of the biggest decisions in football is debated in the House of Lords - the future of football's finances - Graham Miller talks to former FA Chair David Bernstein and our CEO @niallcouper.bsky.social on their thoughts...

Fighting the good fight in a bid to deliver a fairer future for football
Best wishes to Morecambe fans today
When it comes to immigration legal aid, are there new depths to the ocean of unmet need?
Has the Legal Aid Agency's list of providers who can give immigration advice remotely actually created a mirage of capacity?

Thought for the year!
Will 2025 mark the year the financial flow in football finally starts being fairer?
Over 20 years, the gap has grown nine fold!
It could happen, but it depends on our politicians caring about all the clubs in the pyramid and their communities
@fairgameuk.bsky.social
Well done the UK for scoring so highly in the @transparencyuk.bsky.social league table (sic)
Ultimate source of funds needs to be clear and transparent in all businesses
And that's why @fairgameuk.bsky.social is calling for it to be enshrined in football governance
No room to hide
Worth a read πππ
π€ Thought for the day
βοΈ An imbalance in football?
It takes Reece James 55 days to earn more than the entire annual budget of an average League Two club
And around two years to pay for a state of the art 15,000 all seater stadium.
One player at one Premier League club
@fairgameuk.bsky.social
π€Thought for the day
β½οΈ To football, let's champion well-run clubs, fans & foundations. A fairer future for football please
π To activists, never lose sight of the dream to make the world a better place.
π Without dreams, what are we
ππHappy Christmas everyone! π π
Oh and 3pts please Dons!
So what would your answers be?
