Absolutely the game needs money - but I fell out with the concept when they created the false conceit of 'derby' games - which had the nett effect of handing 2 easy points to certain teams based solely on geography, which skews the overall league table.
With respect to the 'event' aspect - isn't it just a massively undersold football stadium, where people file in and out to see their own team play, then bog off to the pub for the rest of the day? It just does nothing for me as a live spectacle - I don't get it.
