I've started a new thread because I don't want to get tied up in how the season ends, or what is going on at other in dividual clubs.
We are in a weak position. The FA, & PFA owe us nothing and the EFL is subordinate and dominated by The Championship. Higher authorities may favour the continuance of local, community based clubs but will have little interest in the structures and heritage so dear to us.
Salary caps have been motted and will come in de facto, if not mandated. We have also heard talk of minimum numbers of young players. We think that a number of clubs will simply cease to exist and "normal" football may be a long way off.
What if we end up being pressured to play development squad youngsters from a PL club? West Ham with the Scally connection? If we refuse they might simply try Ebbsfleet. I'd be interested to hear what possibilities others have considered.
