football supporters fan action against the EPPP - new rulings on youth academies which will destroy lower league football

info here:
We 'the 72 unite', made up of fans from the Football League are angered by, and at a loss to explain, the news today that the proposed legislative changes to the existing academy systems have been voted in favour of.

In the current financial climate with the divide between rich and poor widening on a daily basis, Modern Football continues to be an exaggerated version of the overall global picture. THE RICH CONTINUE TO GET RICHER, WHILE THE POOR SUFFER.

Lower league football is dying, starved by Premier League greed and excess. Attendances are down, and clubs will soon cease to exist, unable to balance the books to survive let-alone compete with the elite.

The lifeblood of Football League clubs are their successful academy systems, some of which have supported and sustained clubs for many years, producing local, homegrown talent representative of the area and fanbase. Today's ruling cuts this essential lifeblood at the arteries and will signal the death knoll, the final nail in the coffin for the survival of Professional Football outside the Premier League.

In response we are calling for action from EVERY FAN at EVERY MATCH on Saturday 29th October 2011 to UNITE, rise-up and fight for the very existence of their clubs. It's NOW OR NEVER we must met the Premier League and FA know we will not be trampled on.

EVERY FAN, EVERY GAME -- BOYCOTT FIRST FIVE MINUTES TO DRAW ATTENTION TO THIS AND SHOW THE STRENGTH OF OPPOSITION TO PROPOSALS

  • ITS DIRECT DISCRIMINATION AGAINST THE LOCAL LAD WHO CAN'T PLAY FOR HIS HOME CLUB AT AGE 10 IF THEY A CAT 3 OR 4, SURELY THAT CAN'T BE RIGHT MAKING HIM TRAVEL FAR AFIELD TO THE NEAREST CAT 1 OR 2????

  • Fuck the EPPP, you will never take our academies, fuck the EPPP!

  • @SuperAdamBaxter If everyone just chooses the richest clubs to watch then there will be no clubs for the rich clubs to play and no more means for them to be rich and followed by idiots who follow them while having no connection with them rather than watching their local club like they are supposed to. If you are so supportive of the greed of the richer clubs, owners etc then go and donate more of your salary to them, while they laugh at you.

  • @SuperAdamBaxter fucking idiot, are you abramovich or something?

  • @bazbonehead

    know where you coming from but when people are wasting time posting comments on youtube saying something won't work they could be spending that time email tabloids,broadsheets or MOTD.

  • I fully support the protest, but am hellishly worried about what will happen at 3.05 when thousands of people are trying to get into the games that have already started. Hillsborough should have taught us that.

    But it won't work, whatever. The EPL doesn't give a flying fuck about anyone but themselves.

  • Everyone spread this far and wide.
