It happened not long ago in the Dudley and Cradley League that i used to play in. Rising costs, poorly maintained council pitches. It was always inevitable that the league would eventually fold.

Of course the pubs closing didn't help either did it. I would guess that's where 60% plus of the clubs originated.Originally Posted by wolves71

The leagues were already starting to shrink by the time I stopped playing competitively in the early 2000's, I only stopped playing veterans football a couple of years ago because it was slowly crippling me. The digital age is definitely to blame for the decline, there's hardly ever any jumpers for goalposts going on anymore... it is as you say Woody very sad and will probably lead to a decline in the quality of football at the higher levels in the next decade or so.
