Where would the money come from?
Who would watch or travel from one end of the country to the other to watch 5 kicks, who would sponsor?

I can't claim to have been sharing all your views with you on this one Mick, but I certainly agree with the above sentiment..............
That reminds me so much of that hilarious 'Notice of Revocation of Independence' which went viral at about the time George W was trying to secure the presidency:
I remember that, when a copy was surreptitiously posted on the notice board at work, our then MD (an American, as it happens) was not best pleased and asked for it to be taken down. He was a decent enough guy, but perhaps lacking a sense of humour...6. You should stop playing American "football". There is only one kind of football. What you refer to as American "football" is not a very good game. The 2.15% of you who are aware that there is a world outside your borders may have noticed that no one else plays "American" football. You will no longer be allowed to play it, and should instead play proper football. Initially, it would be best if you played with the girls. It is a difficult game. Those of you brave enough will, in time, be allowed to play rugby (which is similar to American "football", but does not involve stopping for a rest every twenty seconds or wearing full kevlar body armour like nancies).

Though I do believe the Yanks would worry if Japan was allowed to join in??? TTFN MM
Reservations about the beautiful game and how it is run are nothing new, and interestingly have been expressed from time to time by a certain backbench MP called...wait a minute whiile the name comes to mind...oh yes, Jeremy Corbyn. Didn't he used to be some sort of party leader or something? Or was that in a parallel universe, like in Star Trek- lol
