What the hell are the FA doing, my club Crewe Alex will be competing in the Chamionship even though we are not in the top flight of English football, and a club like Rochdale who in the not so distant past played in divison 4 are now in league 2 without ever winning promotion, is the conference now called league 3?

It's a farce, isn't it? Seems we're playing the Premiership [cough]big boys[/cough] at their own corporate game now.

I just hope we're selling face-paint next season!

And I don't have to sit next to anyone who sings. Or swears. Tut tut.

Anyone for Aqua Libra?! ;)

And now Wimbledon have got the go ahead to change their name to Milton Keynes Dons.

They'll be calling the beautiful game "soccer" next...!!!

Franchise football, bad news. One could imagine a situation where, say, a wealthy businessman buys up a team, say, from a large town in the north of England... London MUFC anyone?

Not that we're in a position to talk, eh Chris? We were the "Gillingham Seagulls" for a couple of seasons!!

Wash your mouth out, Clive!

It was always intended to be a temporary groundshare and, if you remember, the FA only allowed us to play at Gillingham on the condition that we had to come back to Brighton (albeit in another temporary stadium!).

Now they've let Wimbledon relocate and change their name.

BIG difference I'd say...!!!

It wasn't meant to sound like I was having a rant - must be pre-match nerves.

Soz, mate...!!!
