The top teams in the old first division tried to put forward the argument that it would be good for the national game and English football in general - this was complete bollax! It just ensured that a few clubs got a bigger slice of the pie. The obscene amount of money sloshing around the Premiersh*t has attracted far too many foreign owners ( a lot with very dubious backgrounds) , a rising number of agents feeding off the proceeds, an influx of foreign players leading to less opportunities for home grown talent and less cash available for the lower league teams.

Don't get me wrong, I enjoy a greasy burger or bacon buttie as much as the next person but I don't understand why they don't push the boat out a bit with the food at Blundell Park. It seems like they do the bare minimum, generic greasy spoon type stuff. Presumably Kidderminster make a killing with their pies. Why not a decent outlet to buy *proper* fish and chips for example?!

Football and footballers are grossly over-valued in this country. How long since a sniff at an international trophy? Which country has the highest prices and highest footballer wages? Through the door there came familiar laughter, I saw your face and heard you call my name. Oh my friend we're older but no wiser, For in our hearts the dreams are still the same.

Go watch the musical Wicked, and at £50 for a cheap seat it works out at about £20 for an hours entertainment, whereas watching Town comes in at £12 Byddwn ond yn canu pan fyddwn yn pysgota
