IKTS Week 8: At Brentford.

The elites in charge got it wrong, once again, and a whole set of ten games for matchday 7 suffered an unnecessary cancelation. Most cricket games, equestrian sports, rugby, and other sporting events were approved to go on by the same elites. But football is so plebeian, it had to be disrespected by the Thatcherites and their ideological heirs, including many who are fraudulently in charge of football. This is happening in a season with a World Cup with an unnatural spot in November and December, and a humongous fixture pileup is expected. End of rant. In other news, Boehly of Chelsea is suggesting an all star game, with cheerleaders, and halftime entertainment. Beside the sheer ludicrousness of the idea, we all know that the best players would shun such a game. Unlike the NFL, real football has players that are involved in international competitions and/or players that play too many games in too many competitions including the unduly inflated competitions like the EFL Cup, and these players will not show up for Boehly's idea of a game.
