One day the bubble will burst and it won't be pretty. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wacky Waving Inflatable Arm Flailing Tube Man 3,782 Posted December 18, 2020 Good article. I'd heard bits and pieces about this collapse but that article explains the finer points pretty well. It just looks like Mediapro were too ambitious and French football were too greedy. I think one advantage that the Premier League has over the French top flight is that the Premier League has more worldwide appeal, so there would be more chances of other companies hanging around to pick up the pieces, providing that the initial deal wasn't too far-fetched, of course.
