    Reduce EPL by 1 club and this would make up space.

    Eliminate tulip competitions like Carling Cup (ffs - tulip beer that none of those prima donnas would be seen as drinking).

    Also, here is how to make them put out strong squad on such mathes - if they lose then the national team makes ££££ taken directly from the club. If EPL club wins it keeps the money.

    I think that's going to be enough, so I wasn't overly radical in my proposals...

      England could pull out of international football. Take our ball and go home in a huff, sort of. That would show them.



      Edit: I meant to post this in the other forum.

        Erm, did you watch the last world cup?
        While you're waiting, read the free novel we sent you. It's a Spanish story about a guy named 'Manual.'

          Yes, Spain won it, before that it was Italy, France won it in 98 and Germany in 1990.
          Science isn't about why, it's about why not. You ask: why is so much of our science dangerous? I say: why not marry safe science if you love it so much. In fact, why not invent a special safety door that won't hit you in the butt on the way out, because you are fired. - Cave Johnson

            When I was in Bristol earlier this year, a guy in the lounge asked the barman to put on Sky Sports - after a couple of minutes, it was pretty obvious that the programme runs in a loop and is meant to be something you visit and move on from; but this guy just watched the same news for the best part of half an hour, grinning at the same stories & smiling at the same news items over and over again.
            He looked a little retarded but I didn't catch his accent so couldn't be certain he was Scottish
            Were either of you two in Bristol in late Spring?
            How fortunate for governments that the people they administer don't think

              Never been in Bristol. With an anti-Scottish hangup like yours you really should consider therapy.
