Re: Modern day football tranfers fees and wages
For the big teams I think it will keep on going for a while yet. The next obvious thing to exploit is streaming of games, selling a "season ticket" to watch Man Utd on-line. I imagine it will come in overseas first and then, eventually, into the domestic markets. That will kill off the collective r...

If Keane goes as looks likely, good move for him gives us money to spend and hopefully we have some centre defensive targets in mind.
Be usual to get a replacement asap so the back five can gel quicker during pre-season.
