Yeah, looks like he hasn't tweeted in the last seven days. I would also be sceptical about the point of spending circa £250-300m for less than 12k extra seats.
A couple of years ago one of the footie magazines, 4-4-2 I think it was, did a survey that asked supporters of all the premier league clubs who they would support if they couldn't support their own team. We finished miles ahead of anyone else.
A salary cap could work if it is applied to all leagues that come under the aegis of UEFA. If it was introduced by the Premier League only you would almost certainly be kissing goodbye to the top players and any hope of European succes. It won't work if it's tied to turnover as very wealthy people can massively influence revenues.
