Oh, are we talking about personally not watching? That's not what I'm talking about.
That would be as pointless as it would be principled. I'm talking about lobbying the FA or advertisers or whatever - something that in my boundless na?vet? might just make a difference.
If we get to the point where all the national associations have straight batted away criticisms, or ignored them, and the whole thing is going to go ahead whatever, then an individual refusing to watch something that cant influence would be, well, I don't know, but it wouldn't be my choice.
