Just a quickie to say the blighters are at it again. You would think they would listen to the people who support the game but oh no they think their better than us. After the "success" of the Champions league final in Russia with Man Utd and Chelsea, the Idiots at the top are thinking this is proof of it working permanently. Well join us in continuing to say no to game 39.
More to follow on this very shortly

Still No to Game 39
I ahve been off doing some other things recently and thought this "idea" was safely buried btu it seems to have reared its ugly head again. Well I still say no to Game 39!!!.
So I last left you with the news that the 39th game idea was in tatters as stated by the Reading Chairman, John Madejski. It was also the case that the Fifa president, Sepp Blatter was against the idea and said that int would never happen in his tenure as footballs El Supremo. So Richard Scudamore's plans for an extra game in the Pemiership looked scuppered and left dead and buried. Even the FA thought there was no chance of success.
But then Things looked to have turned the corner when the Premier league said they wanted to meet the FA todiscuss plans and then some donley thought, 'Hey, lets take this to FIFA'. Thankfully this never happened and the FA and the Premier League decided that the extra game 39 plan wasnt quite complete to present to FIFA. More like they knew they would get laughed out of the meeting room.
I say three cheers to Mr Blatter for stating that this proposal would hurt Englands bid for the 2018 World cup, becuase if that wasnt the case and he had expressed even the slightest interest then the Premier League and the Football Association of England would have pitched this idea forward. And then where would we be. probably chasing a losing battle but thankfully thats what the Premier League and anyone that supports this daft idea is doing.
I would like all you readers (probably a whole 2 of you!!) to pass word around of this blog and the following links (send them this blog then you only have that 1 thing to remember):
The Football Supporters Federation have a campaign against the 39th Game over here -

So spread the word and share the news as we all say "no to Game 39"
