We can now prepare for a comedic series of press releases where each club will say they don’t want to do this at all and how much they love the fans etc, but there was no doubt heads would roll in some. high positions. after the humiliation here.

It’s amazing that it took this to unite the football fans of this country, but hopefully something good comes out of it, and you can be pretty sure Woodward isn’t the only one to fall for it. on his sword after that.
