Sid, You will probably agree though that 21 is a daft number of teams to make up a division.
I think they could have quite easily have promoted an extra team last season.

Blackstones lost their appeal, according to UCLs facebook page.

On what grounds did they think they could stay up? Your relegated for a reason and that is because your not good enough for the league you've just competed in!

They said that they spent all their money (£20,000) on enforced upgrading of their ground and therefore had no money left to strengthen their squad!!! Talk about clutching at straws!!!

Someone has moaned on UCL Chatter (didn't think anyone still posted on there :shock: ) that S&L should have been demoted, as they have not done required work, and Blackstones reprieved.
