By Tony Attwood The bodies that run football are by and large self-contained, virtually unanswerable to anybody. Uefa, Fifa, the FA, the Premier League… they all carry on doing their own thing. Yes, they are subject to the law, but even then only up to a point, as they regularly claim that by its very …

by Tony Attwood It is interesting to see The Athletic in a current article taking an interest in AFTV, and recognising (perhaps a little late in the day) that not everyone who claims to be an Arsenal supporter actually likes AFTV.
