Fans’ body pledges ‘studs to the knee’ response if Game 39 plans are revived
Football Supporters’ Association hit out at renewed talk of plansPremier League’s Richard Masters had said ‘the door looks ajar’
Any attempt at resurrecting plans to stage Premier League fixtures outside England and Wales will be met with vehement “studs to the knee” opposition, the Football Supporters’ Association have said.
Richard Masters, the Premier League’s chief executive, said last week the “door looks ajar” for English top-flight matches to be played overseas, although there are no plans in the pipeline currently. However, a high-ranking executive at NBC Sports, which holds the rights to screen the Premier League in the United States, told the Athletic the broadcaster is intent on bringing games to American audiences.
