The writing was on the wall years ago for big clubs being greedy when League gate receipts (then share with the away team) all went to the home team.   Man United and other big clubs got richer.

Eventually the money for this league will come from the fans, that means tv subscriptions, just as Sky did when the premiership was created back in the nineties.

This is great news. The six franchises can feck off into the Super League and we can go back to a Football League with Divisions 1 to 4. No relegation from Division 4 this season and top six promoted from the National League and we are back to the 92. Leicester City are on course for the double...

They should not be allowed to leave on their own terms in the time of their choosing, expel them from the premier league and FA with immediate effect, and should they wish to come back then they must start at the bottom of the football pyramid.

It’s been coming for years. As others have said, kick them out of the FA and UEFA.


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.

Quoted from Abdul19


No chance it'll happen for next season. It'll probably save Stevenage when it does though.


Get a grip of yourself with the Stevebage obsession, tueu were below us at Christmas and are now well clear of relegation while we have fallen to the bottom of the football league, that is no accident, they and ourselves are where we are on the merit of our performances and the decisions of our respective managers.

I've nothing but pessimism.
Tonight there's Wembley with 4000 fans who aren't actually fans in attendance as a trial.
Tested in and tested later, all masked up and being good.
I'll bet my bottom it'll prove what they want it to prove, ooh covid spreads so no football for all you plebs next season too.
And so it goes on.
In the meantime Town are relegated, next season non league has collapsed for lack of funds, fans can't attend, no Ifollow, leaving us where?
Another season of non attendance and people paying to watch league football on telly and their PC leaves the clubs not even bothering to open their grounds but have the paying fans watching to a backdrop of the local pitches.
Far fetched?
Roll back to March 2020 when we were told this was for three weeks.
No wonder the ones that can want to bail out and coin it in.

I've a funny feeling we'll be having this same conversation next year, much as we did last year.
