Liverpool owners plan for Premier League matches to be played in America – Rival PL club owner refuses to follow

Time after time, the biggest threat to the Premier League are clearly shown to be the Liverpool owners and the Manchester United owners.

They are relentless in their desire to change English football for the worst, the very worst.

At the heart of every shameless plot, you find those Manchester United owners and Liverpool owners.

Just look back at the attempt of the ‘big six’ to try and award themselves extra voting rights, so that they could then dictate all major decisions in the future.

The owners of those two clubs exposed as having been at the heart of the attempt to steal away power.

The European Super League?

Same again. The Liverpool owners and Manchester United owners leading the way of the same six English clubs looking to make it so they would automatically qualify for the major European competition without having to win any matches.

Last month, the Liverpool owners were at it again…

Liverpool chairman Tom Werner:

“I’m determined one day to have a Premier League game be played in New York City.

“I even have the sort of crazy idea that there would be a day where we play one [Premier League] game in Tokyo, one [Premier League] game a few hours later in LA, one [Premier League] game in Rio, one [Premier League] game a few hours later in Riyadh and make it sort of a day where the Premier League is celebrated.”

A message to the Liverpool owners… we kind of have a day already ‘where the Premier League is celebrated’, it is any matchday at whatever stadium a match is played IN ENGLAND!

Premier League matches cannot be allowed to be played anywhere else than at their normal stadiums, in front of their own fans, in England.

For some time the ever-growing number of clubs with American ownership have looked to be by far the biggest threat to the Premier League.

So it is very refreshing to see one American owner of a Premier League club refusing to follow the Liverpool owners plan and that no doubt of many other of his compatriots that also own PL clubs.

Ironically, Bournemouth owner Bill Foley delivering this message from America, when he was interviewed by BBC Sport in Santa Barbara, during a pre-season tour for the cherries:

“I believe what we are doing today (playing pre-season friendlies in America and elsewhere) – and there are other pre-season games – is what we should be doing.

“In terms of playing actual Premier League matches in America?

“We should play in the UK.

“That is where they belong.

“I am very respectful of our fans and the whole system.

“I wouldn’t want to be involved in changing any of that.

“I believe if you talk to our fans at Bournemouth, they think Foley actually respects our system and respects our heritage. And I do.

“Premier League games in America? No.”

Great to hear Bill Foley saying this.

Would be even better if the Newcastle United owners publicly said the same, ridiculing the Liverpool owners for wanting to take Premier League matches away from where they should always be played.
