It's just about money, knocks me sick.

I don't actually think it's all about money, which is all the more worrying. I genuinely believe that they think this is the best option to take, that they think they'll actually make the England national team better as a result of these changes.

I think it is, the top clubs will just hoover up more of the young talent from abroad and here to throw them in the B team.

I genuinely believe that they think this is the best option to take, that they think they'll actually make the England national team better as a result of these changes. Not so sure. They started the PL 20 odd years ago under the guise that it would benefit the national team. Since it's formation England have never got as far in the World Cup as they did immediately before it.

as much as i'd like reserve teams to play in a properly competitive league, there is no practical way of doing it without fucking over football league clubs. imagine getting promoted by default because the best team in the league is ineligable for it. or just having no idea where you stand in the league there's a load of B teams floating around the promotion/play off/relegation zones. awful Mm, the worst would be losing out on the league title to a B team. Even the celebration for promotion wouldn't be the same. This just totally fucks over lower league sides, there's genuinely no benefits for them. There's also the fact that they can't be relegated from the Conference. The fact that there are barriers for them makes a mockery of the league pyramid.

I personally want to know Mikes thoughts on this before I decide whether I'm pro or anti this idea.

Does Mike sum up the average top 4 wanker? Like, if you could put all the best wanker bits of a top 4 premiership club supporting fan would you end up with Mike? Name on back of shirt wanker to boot. Tragic.

www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/p01yqwvrSteve Claridge rips Danny Mills. Good to see. Also, there's another video on the side of someone who called up and supports Chelsea and Hampton and Richmond Borough who was for it.

Even if England end up playing at an exceptionally higher level than they are playing and are the flair team of Europe, international tournaments are too tight these days to go through them without facing a penalty shoot-out. Even Spain needed them to win even though they were clearly the best team. In which case England will lose anyway and there'll be a new independent enquiry as to why they didn't win the World Cup and the Germans did. Probably put C teams in then.
Claridge would know about lower league, he played for enough teams haha.

I just think it's funny the FA think that England suck because the players aren't getting enough playing time. They don't get enough playing time because they're wank, it starts much lower than this shite they've come up with imo.

@mikecfc I care. As should anyone really. It's sad that you can say it doesn't affect me so I don't care.
You should be bothered though because it will allow the gap between the top 6 and the rest get even bigger.
