From my address to the post code above it is 43.6 miles, way outside the Football League 30 miles range, so rule that one out. Anything over 30 miles and any of us i believe could challenge it.

Having said that lets by all means still bombard them with correspondance of all types, Birmingham too, in fact i think we should be contacting all the West Midland clubs, shows the weight of feeling which may be important at a later date.

From my understanding there is no limit from the FL on distance I think the 30 mile thing was from Fisher.

But your correct, we need to make sure they have no other options than to talk to the people at the Ricoh.

Villa Park 20.2 miles
St Andrews...22.4
Bescot...27.4
Hawthorns...32.5
Molineux....37.2
Oh and the Ricoh...1.1

Why don't we try that last one then. That sounds ideal!

the FL will not enforce the 30 mile rule, they are yellow to the core.

I suppose you could play all three matches at the same time?

if you have different coloured balls for each seperate match, then all 66 players on the pitch at the same time, a sort of multi ballfootball ;)

I might pay to watch that!

The thing about 30 mile radius you have kiddiminster, wolverhampton, canock, Rugely, Litchfield then east to south- banbury, northampton, daventry, festa, loughbourgh. That is if the club are laying on helicopters and you can go as the crow flies. Nothing that this lot will do to try and save face will shock me. Revenue streams? in the words of Ricky T 'my arse'.

Kidderminster is even closer to me, 10 miles, than Walsall, 15 miles.
So it will be much easier for me to join the protest OUTSIDE. Won't be inside.

Just a thought!
We all saw, how badly pitches suffered last season, by a combination of The long cold Winter, and neglected maintenance, Playing on a pitch, every week, is likely to have a more serious effect on its ability to stand the wear and tear, my inquiry is, do the FA and FL insist on a "Fit for Purpose " Guarantee, I understand, the decision, On whether the pitch is suitably Safe and fit for playing on is made by the match day official, but if it was continually Bad due to being overplayed on, would the FA/FL issue a warning/Sanction to the parent club, making it not worth the bother of ground sharing with another club, especially if that particular Club had put itself into Exile, when its usual venue was lying empty
Any Thoughts?
