it is a Football Association competition the PL teams just happen to be invited as are all clubs under the FA umbrella .They are the ones who set out the criteria * *though i accept pressure from "bigger" clubs has led to changes though that is partially down to the ridiculous fixture congestion these days with now a third of PL playing in europe
Always said the obvious solution is to make the league cup for teams not in Europe only. Give the conference league spot to the winner and you'll get a different winner each year.
Just don't see how the hell the FA - which lets face it, is weaker than most PL clubs these days - are going to dictate to these owners that they will be losing gate revenues and expect to get away with it. Without the owners consent, and without the PL clubs, the competition would become nothing more than the Pizza cup or whatever its called these days.
I feel that the clubs at the top end do have a responsibility though towards the clubs in the lower leagues. Equally the league clubs should be assisting and looking out for grassroots however it never happens as there is way too much self interest from all clubs this is the problem when a sport ceases and becomes a business I know there is no way of doing what I think should happen - I just think it should in my Utopian mind every club would have the same money Every club would recieve the same payout from a competition but it’s just stupid to think it could ever happen
Forgot about that crock of ****. We won it when still worth winning Has a yoof side reached a final yet?
No idea if they do or don't to be honest. Sure as hell doesn't look like it when clubs can change the rules at the drop of a coin mid season with a 14-6 vote.
No, but we've won every game so far. That has meant Moyes being branded a **** for not playing the youth in the first team, as obviously beating weakened L2 teams means they're ready.
no, it's the style. They do have a point, it's pretty bland football, but as we've beaten Spurs, Arsenal, Chelsea and United, sit 6th and have a trophy, they're looking like miserable ****s that can't change their views because... Personally I don't give a **** if we have 1% possession if we continues doing thattbh.
