I've just received an e-mail back from the FA which has annoyed me so much. instead of actually trying to answer the concerns i presented, they have fobbed off the ruling onto an independent committee, stating they administrate it but the league appeals committee are the people who deem what fee is appropriate or not.

They have also stated that at no stage would the league appeals committee show any bias(towards the top clubs i assume) and instead of answering my concerns RE youth development they have come out with the same old spiel about the principles of the game being carried fairly and in an unbiased way by themselves and referees!

So in short, it's a letter of enormous fob off connotations, with no name attached and no addressing of the problems. No wonder the game is in such a state when it's being run by such clowns. Listen to the fans? i don't think so.

Now Stateside and watching soccer y'all.
