But the FA should not be in it to make money they are the guardians of a sport in this country not a company!

Sadly as "Guardians" of our sport they have no accountability to anyone, so what else do you except from the inept old codgers who we all help to finance at their lovely HQ in London.

You say Guardians !!! but I wouldnt leave them to Guard a Fire.

They couldnt make up their mind if it was too Hot or they were standing Too close.

Any way as I'm off work sick and just started to be measured for my "Anorack" I've done some calcs on my previous proposal to work out the ones to have the play off.

Based on their P'ts gained against Games played the following is a list of 1st to last of the mini league that results.

1) Walton Casuals,

2) Potters Bar Town,

3) Lymington & ENFT,

4) Ramsgate,

5) Didcot Twn,

6) Ilford,

7) Fleetwood,

8) Enfield, (shame)

9) Rushall Olympic,

10) Goole AFC,

Its simple really Goole & Rushall play off the rest just go on Holiday.

I told you PBT wouldnt be in the mix didnt I.

yeah but what if goole's league is the toughest to win that would surely mean that they deserve an automatic place.

 

all league champions should be promoted simple as that. if anything if they need to make more room for the league winners to be promoted then relegate more teams.

 

they should state the rules at the start and then stick to them. at least nobody can complain then, it may still be unfair but at least everyone would know what they need to do to gain promotion.

That makes too much sense Pin, why should Champions play-off anyway, the teams at the bottom of their leagues should play-off for the right to stay in their league.

Yes I agree that is how it should have been done, but we're now talking about the situation as it is now at the end of a very hard and strenuous season for all these lads.

The Buffoons who we wouldnt leave to Guard a Fire are the ones making a mockery of us all.

It would really mean only enlarging some of the Leagues by 3 places and not necessarily all in one league.

Then at the start of next season the Buffoons should make up their minds as to how many go up and come down at the end of the season.

That way every body would know what they had to do, as you said PIN.

I'd love to be a fly on the wall in that room today, if they were in Business they'd be bankrupt in 6 months.

Absolutely, that's the only way they can get out of this.

I agree.The ONLY option is to extend one of the step 4 leagues.Southern league (east) seems the obvious choice,with Cheshunt and Hemel being relegated to step 4 ,plus Enfield Town and Ilford wanted to go into that league.

Decision done then lads,

How do we get one or all of us onto the Old Gits committee.

I suggest we start our own alternate consultancy for the old befuddleds of this world and get paid by them for making their decisions for them.

What chance that ?

Slim I'd say but we can dream.

I believe that you have to taste bottom for many years before you're even considered, so count me out.
