Hardly a day goes by without football seeking exemptions from the restrictions which the rest of us are expected to observe in hope of saving each other’s lives.
Greed and selfishness, it seems, go hand in hand.
Right now the FA expect the England team to be given permission to dodge quarantine upon their return from Albania following an upcoming qualifying match for next year’s World Cup.
This would save our mega-spending clubs from having to play a couple of Premier League games without their ludicrously over-paid stars, who would otherwise be kicking their heels at home or in Covid hotels.
