How could this play out? I will give an obvious example: the football calendar, an essential raw material for our game. It is a fiercely contested territory. If the Premier League faces increasing pressure to accommodate UEFA and FIFA expansionism, including as a result of the football regulator, there will be profound implications for the structure and scale of our domestic competitions. We have already seen this tension play out on a smaller scale with the unavoidable scrapping of FA Cup replays.
