"Big SIGH"
What the hell are they doing to our beutiful game, i have visions of waking up one morning and it being called "Soccer" .. do we play with just socks on err no,
Beckham - your punishment for not getting 100 Caps is for calling our nations great game "soccer"
Lets face it the whole things stinks of "SOCCER"
I don't know, a game with all the teams in playing at once could be quite amusing.Quote:

When it comes down to it, it is all about money. There is already too much money in the premier league and not enough in the lower leagues, there is no balance to it. There is no need for the premier league to promote its self abroad, the clubs them selves can and do, do that during summer tours.
