The Premier League will update its proposals around rules governing commercial deals after a meeting of top-flight clubs on Tuesday.

It was the first meeting of the 20 clubs since the verdict in Manchester City’s legal case against the Premier League over the league’s associated party transaction (APT) rules was announced earlier this month.

APT rules are in place to ensure sponsorship deals with companies linked to clubs’ owners represent fair market value.

City had some complaints upheld, with two aspects of the rules deemed unlawful by the tribunal.

The tribunal said low-interest shareholder loans should not be excluded from the scope of APT rules, and that changes made in February to toughen up the regulations also breached competition law.

The Premier League is hopeful it can get an agreement from clubs on the new rules in the short to medium term, but City do not share the view that the matter can be resolved fairly quickly.

There was never an intention to hold a vote at Tuesday’s meeting.

Premier League chiefs used the meeting, which officials attending said lasted just over an hour, to outline the situation from their perspective.

The league will now use the feedback to update its proposals and recirculate to the clubs. Privately, it has been suggested this could be done in a matter of days.

However, the whole issue will not be clarified until the league holds a vote, which would require 14 clubs to vote in favour.

League officials were not able to offer a timescale on that but agreed this could be over the short to medium term.

The next Premier League shareholders meeting is due to take place in the middle of November, although adequate time would have to be allowed beforehand if a vote was to take place then.

Resale tickets for the World Series opener between the Los Angeles Dodgers and New York Yankees at Dodger Stadium started at $1,358 on Monday evening on StubHub.

That’s an increase from opening prices on TickPick earlier Monday, where the cheapest tickets available came in at $999 and later increased to $1,085.

StubHub said sales outpaced last year’s final figures and are four times higher than the pace of the 2022 World Series Series. Sales for Games 3-5 in New York are 40% higher than for Games 1, 2, 6 and 7 in Los Angeles.

Vivid Seats, another resale outlet, said its average price of tickets sold for this year’s Series was $1,368, about double the $685 last year for the Texas Rangers–Arizona Diamondbacks matchup. Vivid said its resale price averaged $550 for the 2009 World Series between the Yankees and Philadelphia Phillies.

Vivid said the average price of tickets it sold Monday was $1,302 for Game 1 on Friday, $1,392 for Game 2 on Saturday, $1,443 for Game 3 at Yankee Stadium and $1,389 for Game 4 on Oct. 29. It did not disclose a figure of how many tickets it sold. As of Tuesday afternoon, the cheapest Game 3 ticket was standing room only at Yankee Stadium for $1,705.

For those unable to make it in person, Game 1 of the 2024 World Series will start at 8 p.m. ET Friday, and you can catch that and every game of the series on FOX and the FOX Sports App.

The comeback trail is off and running for a few starting quarterbacks — two from injury and one from the career backup abyss. 

Let’s check out the odds to win the award via DraftKings Sportsbook as of Oct. 22.

2024 Comeback Player of the Year Odds:

Kirk Cousins, Falcons: +300 (bet $10 to win $40 total)
J.K. Dobbins, Chargers: +330 (bet $10 to win $43 total)
Joe Burrow, Bengals: +400 (bet $10 to win $50 total)
Aaron Rodgers, Jets: +550 (bet $10 to win $65 total)
Damar Hamlin, Bills: +550 (bet $10 to win $65 total)
Nick Chubb, Browns: +1000 (bet $10 to win $110 total)
Kyler Murray, Cardinals: +1400 (bet $10 to win $150 total)
Sam Darnold, Vikings: +1600 (bet $10 to win $170 total)

Sam Darnold had been atop the oddsboard for weeks, but after the Vikings dropped to 5-1 with a loss to Detroit in Week 7, Darnold drifted from +200 two weeks ago to +1600 this week.

The new favorite is Kirk Cousins, even though his Falcons lost 34-14 at home to Seattle in Week 7.

Cousins is fourth in the NFL in passing yards (1,840) and tied for seventh in touchdown passes (10). He missed a majority of last season with a torn Achilles.

Also charging up the board is Chargers running back J.K. Dobbins, who was at +1000 on Oct. 9, and now sits second at +330. He’s third in the league in rushing yards (478), after also missing most of last season with a torn Achilles.

Lastly, Cincy’s Joe Burrow is now third on the board, after sitting at +1200 two weeks ago. Burrow missed the conclusion of last season with a wrist injury.

The Bengals have won three of their last four, and Burrow has 1,759 passing yards (sixth), 14 TDs (fourth) and only two picks on the season.

Newcastle winger Anthony Gordon has signed a new long-term deal with the Premier League club.

The 23-year-old has scored 15 goals and created 11 assists in 74 appearances since joining the Magpies from Everton in January 2023 in a £45m deal.

Following his England debut in March this year, Gordon was a member of the Three Lions squad that reached the Euro 2024 final.

He had been linked with a return to his hometown with Liverpool over the summer but the move never materialised.

“I just think the club’s in a great place,” said Gordon.

“Since the takeover it’s just been up and up. Me and the gaffer are a perfect match in terms of style of play. I love it here.

“The team is very suited to me – and I’m here to win a trophy. The short story is we need to win a trophy.

“Winning a trophy here would be unbelievable because the fans have waited so long. To be part of that team who finally does it is a massive goal of mine.”

Newcastle boss Eddie Howe says Gordon has grown as a “player and a person” since moving to St James’ Park.

“He is dedicated to improving himself and the team, and when you add that to the quality of his performances and his incredibly high work-rate, it’s clear to see why he has such a special connection with our supporters,” said Howe.

“There’s even more to come from Anthony and I’m excited about what’s ahead for him and us.”

The Los Angeles Dodgers and New York Yankees will meet up in the World Series, starting with Game 1 on Friday (8:08 p.m. ET on FOX).

This will be the 12th time these iconic franchises will battle for a championship, but the first time since 1981.

Here is the lowdown on Game 1, including how to watch, potential lineups and more.

How can I watch the World Series?

Every game will be broadcast on FOX, and each contest is slated to start at 8:08 p.m. ET. Here is the schedule:

Who is favored?

The Dodgers are currently favored to win Game 1, and also favored (-125) to win the series.

Who will start Game 1?

The Yankees will start reigning AL Cy Young winner Gerrit Cole. The Dodgers have not yet announced a starter. Walker Buehler was expected to start Game 7 of the NLCS if that had occurred. But the long break gives them more options, including potentially Jack Flaherty or Yoshinobu Yamamoto.

Who will be in the lineup for Game 1?

Neither team has announced its starting lineup, so these are projections based on how Yankees manager Aaron Boone and Dodgers manager Dave Roberts have filled out their cards in recent games. Also, Dodgers first baseman Freddie Freeman has been in and out of the lineup with an ankle injury, so we’ll have to keep an eye on that. This will be updated when things become official.
