are about to be blown away by the premier leagues new rules, allowing the "elite" to steal the kids at the lower league clubs.

This new ruling will basically mean the elite can have 4 levels of junior players being coached. And the 90 minute rule getting blown out of the water.

So they can take kids from anywhere, and have many many more of them meaning the lower you go down the ladder, the poorer quality left.

Apparantly this is all a long term plan to make the England team great again.

Yes, of course it is. :roll:

I heard a report on talk sport about this and its shocking the current "90 minute" rule were a player has to play for a club that is in this time frame away from them is going to be abolished. Clubs like Ipswich, Norwich, Colchester have been relying on this for years to allow them to get the financial incentives following nurturing a player.

Its another move by the PL to do over the FL clubs, instead of looking at clubs like Crewe, Southampton model who have a conveyer belt of good young players coming through and actually make money, they are throwing it all away. I think they said Hereford and Accrington have so far ditched their academies as they simply can afford them, the PL are walking a fine line doing this as I can see about 25-30 clubs following suit.

I think what this will probably lead to is a more shite England team than we already have.

Kids will be sucked up by premier league clubs, then half witted billionaire Texans and Arabs will come in demand success in about a week and a half before they have to go and break in a new virgin bride. This will make a generation of young English players settle for at best mid level championship football or festering on the subs bench picking out new interior fabric for their next Ferrari.

If they want to make better English footballers how about ruling that every team in the entire league pyramid can only field 3 players that are not from England, Scotland, Northern Ireland or Wales per match, there can only be one sub not from these countries used, and that each squad must be comprised of at least 75% home nations players.

Then if the equal opportunities Europrats come moaning tell them to get stuffed because this is Britain not Europe and we are better off without them.

Because it would be much easier to pull out of Europe and exclude players from the rest of the world. In an ideal world all players would be English but banning Scotch, Welsh and Northern Irish players would be a bit tricky when they are legally all from the same country. It is only the FA's that are individual.

As much as I agree that the Premier League has its ills I think the FA tries to blame it far too much for the underperforming nature of the England team.

It wasn't the Premier League who made the FA waste millions on an unnecessary Wembley stadium and the 2018 World Cup bid was it?
