This is disgusting. A new low point for the FA who are supposed to look after the good of the game at all levels. Massive change needed at the top.

Absolutely ludicrous. There is no way in the world anyone would confuse the two. As the Wembley FC spokesman said, if there was any confusion there'd be thousands of fans turning up at their ground whenever there was a big game on at the national stadium.

Sadly the FA sold their soul years ago.

Signed.


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.

Unfortunately for me, as they themselves sold out in the FA Cup with that Budweiser legend team thing  then i have no sympathy.

I know what you're saying and neither decision was made for the right reasons but this is another level entirely IMO. For the FA to shut down a grass roots team because their name interferes with their brand is a disgrace.

as well as the FA and Wembley, there's also the EFL charging AFC Wimbledon with a breach of regs

Dont particularly disagree that the FA are way off but ...just takes the p!ss for me when Wembley FC themselves took a whole heap of cash and publicity, changed their club logo on the back of it, disrespected the entire competition in my book by having a team of mercenaries playing and for what ?? an American beer company publicity stunt....... i was p!ssed off at the time with what they did which went against the very spirit of the cup and i aint changing my mind now.

Just signed this via Facebook

The FA have previous stuffing clubs...Wimbledon for example so signing it is a no-brainer as far as I’m concerned
