    And it takes advantage of the Premier League to fund its continued existence!
    I am not saying the FA isnt needed, but was just wondering why PL employees should give a **** about the national team.

    If the academy can continue to produce, that might be another bonus if we went down; more chances for homegrown players to get a start, and maybe if they’re in the Championship, Liverpool won’t have heard of them :emoticon-0105-wink:

    Fair enough if you don’t give a **** about the national team. Personally I am delighted that after decades of disappointing us all, they finally appear to be on the right track, but there is no reason why you or anyone else should feel that way.

    What’s important though is that the FA are responsible for the national game rather than just the national team. Anyone who cares about football should care about that, including the greedy parasitic thundercunts who run the PL.

    lol Rochdale shouldn't cause too many problems!

    I've been very slack this year and not been.

    I watched a lot of the dross in League 2 but now they're doing well I've not been.

    Too much fishing to be done <ok>

    £5m is huge and obscene when compared to the average wage, but it's an absolute pittance compared to what he's made the clubs, not even 0.1% of what they'll make from theTV deal he negotiated this year alone. I wouldn't begrudge someone who'd made me that sort of money a £250,000 farewell thankyou.

    Which he has been paid very well for.

    It just doesn't sit right with me when theres loads of fans who can't afford to go to games and grass roots so desperate of funds etc. that clubs are happy to chuck quarter a million to a greedy rich ****.

    The better your job, and the better you do it, the better the golden handshake will be at the end, and he;s done a fantastic job for the premier league clubs, even the lowest can outspend every other football club around the world with the exception of a very small few.

    He made them TV deals because he was in the hot seat to do so. That was his job...the one he was on a wage for.

    Everyone wants a piece of the PL circus...or has he do done something extraordinary to get the deals?
