Excellent pod. Made me realise a PL with big City and Chelsea deductions might *boost* the product. Those two in a relegation fight. A title race Arsenal v Liverpool, who have one title between them in 20 years. A mad top 4 race. Promoted clubs better chance to survive. 🤯

Was Saturday's Cenotaph aggro really about 'football hooliganism'? A bit of yes, a bit of no, but maybe more 'yes' than I initially thought.
