http://v2journal.com/38/post/2015/11/v2-football-podcast-no-one-cares-about-england.html

Welcome to the V2 Football Podcast!

Part 1: The team looks at Man United passing the £500 million revenue mark and ask whether or not this is actually a good thing. Is Football too dominated by business? Is the trade off, of better quality games for worse off fans, worth it?

After last weeks dismal Premier League round of fixtures the lads wonder; is the Premier League boring now? Has it lost the entertainment factor? Is La Liga or the Bundesliga better to watch?

In Part 2: The team look at worldwide sport as a whole and asks whether or not it's going through a crisis; Doping in Russia, athletics in a mess, doping in cycling, match fixing in cricket and FIFA corruption. Is football safe from this? Does it only happen off the pitch? Wenger thinks their is cheating in football, is he right?

Part 3: With two blockbuster friendlies against Spain and France coming up the team asks; does anybody actually care about England anymore? There's very little hype, but what's causing this apathy? If England win will they get credit? Or will it only be noticed if they lose?

Also with Chelsea languishing in relegation form is this the year where the 'glass ceiling' of the premier league is broken and a new team forces it's way into the top 4? Can Tottenham's English young guns do it? Or will they tire after january? Can West Ham, Southampton, Everton or Liverpool mount a challenge? Or will Leicester do the ridiculous?
