Weekend Round Up:

February 9, 2008 By Redhead

United’s weekly news and Premier Ship round up:

The news is all about the FA and bull shit.Actually to 2 bullshits.They are trying to make few changes in Premier League.With first,they are approaching to increase the substitute option from 5 to 7 as per the standards of UFEA. .Fergie has already talked upon this saying that clubs are now having too many good players and with 5 options its rather tedious to pick one.He was never satisfied with 5 and its finally working for him.So by next year around we will see 7 players warming the benches rather than 5.Reserves guys are right now the happiest men watching to this news.

Now with the other part.The second one is an interesting and exciting one.FA committee has decided to make Premier league sort of global.Global in sense of matching being played.The matches will be played in different parts of countries keeping in mind how popular EPL has become in past few years.Well this has caused sort of a debut situation.With few very excited others ain’t happy with this one.A few including Wenger feels that its perfect if it promotes EPL’s quality and respects fan.While Keane feels this as a burden.He was looking for a better winter break rather than excessive traveling across the world.The schedules in Premiership is already too packed and with this coming up its going to make things hard with players.
However This isn’t a move to actually make sports popular or to promote but to bag some extra cash.This would then end up with cities actually bidding over matches and sponsors pouring cash to make their best players play.What recently happened with United in Arabia is an example of this.United cashed in a reportedly 1million pounds leaving all expenses.The trip did soak much from the players instead of them enjoying their breaks. Fergie isn’t enjoying all one but he too doesn’t stand an option against those money whores Glazers.
