I even see it creeping into my own club... on the CCFC forum, rather than being pleased that we are on Sky again this friday and hopefully will be a decent match, more people seem to be pleased that the Sky appearance means "another £100k in the bank for the club".
I don't think it's money that is driving this Travs. I think it's the desire to try and micro-manage everything.
