Niall Couper, CEO of Fair Game, said: “The index is essential. There are many different reporting approaches in the top four divisions and a lack of transparency. But the index is not just about distribution for distribution’s sake. He said: “The findings are stark. Most Championship sides would see a rise in their revenue of £6.3 million. “The uplift for League One sides would be £5.1m and for League Two sides £2.7m. National League sides and the sides in the Women’s top two divisions would receive new direct payments for the first time.”

From the moment he arrived he was brilliant, he was a beast of a man.” At the end of games Stam normally had a clean pair of shorts, for he rarely needed to dive in with a last-ditch tackle. “He was so strong it was a mismatch. "In the treble-winning season, he proved himself as one of the best-ever defenders. Stam was the complete defender; 6ft 3in tall and powerfully built, no one could compete with his strength. “You’re lucky I even put you in the top five after the racism case with my brother so be thankful you made it.”

5 Premier League wonderkids who could follow in James Garner's ... (Mirror.co.uk)

Man Utd midfielder Garner was one of the stars of the EFL last season, helping Nottingham Forest win promotion - now we look at five top flight youngsters ...

He has already been linked with a clutch of Championship clubs and that would seem the most logical progression for the talented teen. There would doubtless be plenty of Championship clubs interested. Still only 19, Diallo offers plenty of attacking guile but could be considered still rough around the edges. James Garner was one of the biggest success stories, with the Manchester United midfielder dazzling in a temporary stint at Nottingham Forest as he helped them secure a top flight return after 23 years away. At home at right-back he could benefit from a season out on loan in the cut and thrust of the Championship, just as Taylor Harwood-Bellis and Tommy Doyle experienced last term. A loan move to a team in the EFL, whether it be for a full campaign or just a half-season, could be just the tonic needed for him to aid to his development.

Premier League Collection: Brighton v Man Utd (Manchester United)

A week before the Premier League fixtures are announced for 2022/23, our series moves on to Brighton & Hove Albion and classic clashes with the Seagulls.

Former striker Danny Welbeck threatened to stop the Reds winning this Old Trafford clash with a shock opener. United 3 Brighton and Hove Albion 1 Dunk pulled one back with a header from close range, only for Rashford to make the points safe. A brilliant breakaway ended with Greenwood crossing for Bruno to volley past Mat Ryan in spectacular fashion. Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's men did have two goals ruled out for offside but it was hard to argue Albion did not deserve a 95th-minute equaliser from Solly March. Nonetheless, Maupay handled a Harry Maguire header in the box and although referee Chris Kavanagh did not spot it, VAR did. Brighton & Hove Albion 2 United 3
