Listening to talk sport this evening, they were banging on about Chelsea and how they have level 1 facilities which enabled them to poach young players from clubs with inferior facilities for a pittance. In the wake of some player from Charlton being signed by Chelsea. Michael Woods was mentioned (but oddly they couldn't remember Tom Taiwo's name) as an indication of how young players go there and then languish in the reserves at best or sink to obscurity.
They mentioned a few teams, almost all of them Premier outfits, who had been awarded Level 1 but we were not mentioned, where do we rate, does anyone know.
What's our level?

So financial fair play favours the premier league teams, parachute payments favour them to and now this. Is someone trying to ruin the game

Harrow, as I've said before, all these rules, FFP etc are designed to maintain the status quo and prevent clubs breaking into top 4.
We may well have missed th boat in trying to get there now as bates has held us back for so many years.
