A League Collapses

Breaking news this afternoon that the Raich Carter Thursday Night 5-a-Side League, founded by Henry VIII after an undercooked dinner of pheasant and swan, is no more.
The news is that numbers for the new season have been falling faster than Amir Khan, and there are no longer enough quality teams to be able to comprise a full league. It never stopped the SPL, but down here, we do things different. We have knives AND forks. We have fruit. And we have dignity. You can keep your freedom.
Returning from my anti-Scot rant, this leaves Wimbledon is hiatus. Administrators are already on the case. The house of Paul Hands has been raided for cash to keep the club afloat, but all that was found were two blonde sex dolls and 52 pictures of himself, topless.
This is surely the tip of the iceberg where this story is concerned, and like the Titanic, events here today are likely to make a splash all through football

  2. The writing was already on the wall and we were already seriously contemplating leaving anyway. After one more season we would have gone so it's not the end of the world. We'll just relocate and start over!
