    So if it was in place now next season you would get only 19 league home games, instead of the 23 you get now.
    They should model it on the NFL where there are only 8 home games and a season ticket is 2K and up

    That's what we're edging towards CAMiller

    I know small clubs depend to an extent on the gate receipts but does it really effect the premier league clubs where I would imagine that the seasons revenue doesn't pay the salary of a player?

    ....i suppose the people who thought this up wanted to be "noticed" doing something for their salary, which is probably hugely inflated.

    ...........Meanwhile, the Premier****e carries on untouchable, and rules the roost...........

    U21's picked next Wednesday (why isn't it already done I'd like to know) we'll end up with Middlesbrough academy

    To be fair, that is a very good draw for us, bradford and Chesterfield are both teams we like to beat making a competition I had no interest in very interesting.

    It's laughable that they have been picked to reduce travel time, not to try and get bigger attendance then because it was embarrassing last season

    Could the powers that be have made a bigger mess of this competition. Reminds me of the old adage a camel is a horse designed by a committee. How are the fixtures determined? One home game, one away and one played on FIFA17?

    Looks a good format to me
    If I understand it correctly we will play 3 group games. 2 at home and 1 away.
    My preference would be Bradford and Newcastle at home. Chesterfield away.
