Changing the structure of UK football

[WRicko]

Tony Blair apparently looked at moving Wimbledon to Belfast see below.


We have also had regular talk of Celtic and Rangers joining the premier League. Some Welsh clubs can be eligible to play in the top flight of English football but others cannot and at lower levels some clubs play in other countries depending on travel conditions.

Tony Blair wanted to move Wimbledon FC to Belfast in the 1990s

The idea was supposed to help build 'strong cross-community support'

Just wonder what people think of all this and should everything be left as it is ?

I read that article about Blair and it just goes to show what a complete dick he was.
The fact he is quoted as saying it could "bring both sides of the community together" gave me a triple shake of the head.
He thought hundreds of years of animosity.could be forgotten about and both sides would all walk to a new stadium side by side in harmony.to watch Wimbledon v Southampton.......
I also noted it said "Sir Tony Blair".
When was he awarded that and why hasn't he been charged for war crimes yet?

I remember Blair saying he sat on the Gallowgate and watched Jackie Milburn.
Typical politician, two lies in one sentence.
