THE WEEKLY WALKABOUT, E.G.

With talk about the unbeatable "big four" in our news, it's worth remembering that, not so long ago, club football in England was mostly-locals in MEANIGFUL competition...

Poem 98 of 230: REREGULATE

One Premier world-eleven v.
    Another such company,
Or wage-caps and say half each-club's squad
    From the local-junior pod?
And, perhaps, heed the cricket-fan's call
    To convert to county-football..?
