Do we now have all of the month of April for April fools jokes?
It's been on the news that the PM has been in an emergency meeting about football.
What's happening there then?
Surely some sort of spoof is being performed to take attention away from something else.
Very odd.

Its a dead cat to cover the fact that the breifing room that they paid £2.6m to Russia for wont be being used and the whole "white house" syle briefing fiasco has been scrapped. Yet more money wasted.

Not being one of those fan people I'm only guessing but I expect its about the major teams demanding a bigger slice of pie, and threatening to form their own league as leverage. Same thing happened in F1 about 15 years ago. Of course the FIA and Bernie gave in eventually.

Brexit happened - this should be banned. British football for England only!

The break away has lasted 24 hours and now all 6 Premier league teams have changed their minds. I think they could have ended up with not many players.

It's a distraction from the serious world issues, a bit of respite from being a proper prime minister.
