OVERSEAS PREMIER LEAGUE MATCHES

Motion Text

That this House notes with dismay the plans published by the Premier League to play one extra game per season in an overseas location; notes that the domestic football calendar is already extremely congested and a further fixture would add to the fatigue of players; further notes that the prohibitive cost of attending overseas fixtures would prevent loyal fans of Premier League teams from watching their side; and urges the Premier League to reconsider the plans.
