Memo to News Corp journo types. “Soccer” fans stopped caring what you think, the moment you used CoVid as an excuse to tear up your AL contract - which put the game in financial trouble in the first place - & used your newspapers to try to destroy it. Full stop. End of story.

I’m going to go against popular opinion here. I understand there’s huge demand for tickets, but the more we shift games to oval venues because of bigger capacity (same with the Socceroos btw), the more the message sinks in that we don’t really need proper ⚽️ specific facilities.
