    Football is a business and has been for a very long time , where do you think the revenues come from in football ? From the fans ?

      The governing body should not be a business.

        Ok, the expert speaks. I'll stand down.
        Oh I don't know.

          Man, you seem really angry recently.

          I honestly hope you're OK, because this doesn't actually matter.

                  Only real game I've watched so far in the Euros and Wijnaldum is putting on a bit of a clinic here. We'll struggle to replace him.

                      The irony is that it’s proper Streisand effect. Way more publicity for Coca-Cola by Ronaldo doing that than if he’d not. I understand why UEFA has said they will dish out fines but I hope the players start to think about the brands that they stand in front of, and continue to speak out.

                            What business/charity/foundation would claim they didn’t respect their customers regardless?

                            You do seem a bit more triggered/annoyed lately. But yeah **** Dom.

                              Having been to the last two Euros following Ireland I love seeing this - nothing beats the build up to a big game......the hope, the banter, the singing, the day, the journey to the ground, the booze, the atmosphere........ we got thumped when I saw it but loved it nonetheless

                                No point missed. We l know they don’t give a **** about the fans but that’s the point really isn’t it ? It’s a business anyone not seeing that and thinking they’re going to be there for the “good of the fans” is wishing for a reality that doesn’t exist.
