Summary
A nice light, noncontroversial one to kick off today’s Mailbag: are multi-club ownership models a necessary evil in modern football, or a blight on the game’s very essence?
Marcus, Luke and Vish tackle that one first, before diving into some of the lighter questions you’ve chucked us over the last week. What are some nice bits about modern football? Where would we choose to finish our own career? And who’s got the best ‘bang average career, exceptional individual moment’ in football history?
