'how come the cup match between Wealdstone Vs Boreham Wood isn't going to a replay?' 'because the American owners of one of the wealthiest Premier League clubs wanted less low revenue games for their club, so that they can focus more on extra games in the Champions League, the Club World Cup and the...

changes for everyone just to satisfy 'the big 6'

I do sometimes wonder whether commentators are a bit dumb, or just stick to narratives because it makes their life easier bit of both imo.

What year did they reckon the charges might actually get to be heard? If the charges are PSR related then it will be heard relatively q...

The Football League was formed on this day in 1888 at The Royal Hotel in Manchester

Are teams getting more points these days? I am not just talking about the Championship. I am sure 90 points used to feel like a pretty special achievement 20-30 years back, but seems to almost happen as standard nowadays (I may also just be misremembering, which I do a lot of) League 1 this year cou...
