We've all played this beautiful game, and at the end of the day, over the course of a whole season, it's whoever loses the most points that gets demoted. Unfortunetly this year it was Southy. Everyone is talking like South Cardiff are being banned from the game. F*** sake, they're only being demoted to NewFM, where they'll be back up from in one seasons time.
What i think is disappointing about all this at the moment is that money is dictating this league. It would appear that there is no benefit in a club trying to develop players, as they cant risk a year of below average performances or they are out the door.

I would like to see 3 year npl licences, allowing clubs to develop from within, without the fear of instant relegation.
