Had a thought earlier today about what the outcome would be if every county had a football team, in a similar way to Cricket although players would only be allowed to play for the counties of their birth.
So Lincolnshire, Yorkshire, Nottinghamshire and all the rest would compete against each other in a league.
This IS NOT a serious suggestion, more a conversation starter. Wanted to see how you all think Lincolnshire would do as a team.
As far as I'm aware, there is only one player playing in the Premier League currently who was born in Lincolnshire and that's Patrick Bamford.
This also raises another interesting point, why are there so few Lincolnshire born footballers who make it to the highest level? What disadvantage is there here compared to other counties?
