There is a famous quote by former Vice President John Nance Garner who said that the vice presidency is “not worth a bucket of warm piss.” Based on what we saw during the Arsenal/Chelsea game, the EPL’s new concussion protocols may be in that same bucket.

The loser wouldn’t be guaranteed relegation either but they would be all but going down. […]
