I disagree. Wickets do have value in T20 but I get what you are trying to say, it’s just that, when faced with the choice, I would defo choose to see sixes being hit all around the park instead of 3 wickets in the first over triggering an unstoppable storm of boredom for the entirety of the remaining game.

I remember when t20 was shown no interest at all and didn’t seem to fit in well with other formats of cricket. Now, I believe it’s a lot more balanced with cricket entertaining fans of all tastes.

Just a ploy to keep the team and its assets within control.

Sort of like the tik Tok , china is taking our info and spying on us but in reality , it's probably that lobbies for FB and other tech giants realizing how they are losing billions to tiktok.

The crazy thing is the quintessential oil money club, PSG, can’t even when the fucking champions league having three of the absolute best players in the world in their front line. If anything I would argue it leads to a prima donna model where players feel they can breeze through.

Every time PSG burns out I click my heels

The irony is Liverpool fans that don’t like their current owners complain that they don’t “invest”. Which basically means they don’t just dump their own personal funds into the club and rely on developing it to grow the brand and increase revenues. Which is basically have any reasonable business should be run. They also, oh I don’t know won them a champions league and the Premier league title?

Anyone that thinks the Henry is a problem is basically want an oil money without admitting it.

It's disgusting but not really unexpected, football "fan clubs" have always been barely a step away from organized crime groups and most of the fans never really had a problem with that, saudi despots aren't that big of a jump in quality.
