Having
made the ridiculous and probably corrupt decision to hold the 2022 World Cup in
Qatar, FIFA’s contradictory decision to move it from summer to winter makes
sense, but predictably the Premier League are up in arms as it will disrupt
their gravy train, or season as the rest of us know it, however here are a few
ways to cope with it: continue the domestic season to the end of June (as there
will be no summer world cup); play fixtures through the World Cup anyway (as in
the Africa Cup of Nations) giving some young British players a chance of first
team football; free up some midweek slots by scrapping, reducing or
rescheduling to November / December the minor cup competitions (League Cup,
Europa Cup) for which the big teams play reserve players anyway, and similarly
restrict the European Champions League to just the national club champions
