In their defence, they play too many games. Because it's all about money.
Sky & BT Sports make their demands. The League Cup is just unnecessary. Pointless pre-season friendlies all around the world to help the global marketing of these Corporations (they're not Football Clubs). Supporters might as well support Ford, or Unilever.

Elite football is dog pooh.
