[QUOTE="shtove, post: 189729"] Just saw a snippet of a Michael Vaughan interview - he reckons English cricketers will be playing in the Indian league within a couple of years: money's too big. But some sports franchises are in trouble from the credit crunch - like Liverpool FC - these guys borrow big to pay big, and their lenders can screw them very quickly. Plus a recession will drain advertising revenue. We're definitely in the middle of a collapse in lending, which means there won't be so much money in sport over the next few years. Maybe there won't be enough to tempt the talent out of the domestic leagues, and the national unions can get the upper hand again. [/QUOTE]
