    Don’t agree with that…seeding just to try and ensure that the same big clubs rise to top and improve the chances of the same sides making the final. Be seeding the FA Cup next. :angry:

    Why not just let the top 6 clubs play each other all the time. They could call it something like ……….The Super Dooper Closed Shop Competition.

    Spurs (and the council) are bad enough for applying but what the hell is the judge (Mr Justice Ossie Ardiles) doing? Green belt is bad enough but public trust land? The whole thing stinks.

    Mind you, they nearly lost me with the mention of the nearby beaver habitat.
    The only beavers we need in this country.

    Smaller clubs should just refuse to enter it.

    Another competition being destroyed by the "big 6" ... sigh.

    Given the competition is run by the EFL, this seems a bit odd.

    Rick Parry has form for collaborating with the big clubs though. Remember project big picture?

    That has been debunked, though I've seen plenty of jokes on that subject.

    The Leeds fans are saying that they don't have to sell now, delusion at its finest.

    "Unlike the other clubs in Red Bull's stable of football teams, however, the name and logo of Leeds United will remain unchanged, the club said."

    Surely they don’t have to sell as much as they might have had to have done? It will be more players that actively force themselves out and the higher wage ones who were sent out on loan who didn’t even want one season in the championship

    Mourinho going for a Turkish title to add to his collection now, it seems.

    Saw a tweet from a Turkish fan earlier saying that adding Mourinho to the Super Lig and the Fenerbahce rivalries is like putting Mentos in Coke.
