The idea was mooted around 9 months ago as a watered-down version of Dyke's original "League Three" proposal: [url]http://www.telegraph.co.uk/sport/football/competitions/premier-league/10859378/Football-League-draws-up-plan-for-Premier-League-B-teams-to-enter-Johnstones-Paint-Trophy.html[/url] A quick google search turns up about 15 occurrences on chat forums today but nothing that could be called a reliable source.  So has it progressed beyond the proposals from last May? Who knows.

It was agreed that Kris Stewart would talk with other trusts to help us decide whether this is something for the Dons Trust to follow up. http://thedonstrust.org/2015/02/23/february-dons-trust-board-meeting-summary/ http://www.miabcleethorpes.net

City A & B teams say reach the final, or draw each other even? Another tin pot idea from clueless idiots running our game. Blatter would be proud of this, because it is so stupid.

If the match that took GTFC through to Wembley for the first time ever was against a bunch of 17 year olds on £10k a week and a handful of African players parachuted in to give them a run out as they hadn't been near a first team since for 3 years. Absolutely hideous. I honestly, and I say this with complete and utter sincerity, hope that Greg Dyke and all those who have pushed this through die a horrible, horrible death sometime soon. Hopefully over the summer so we've something to keep us entertained.

You ruin the best lower system in the world, just for a few extra quid. Why not just stop anyone playing football If there not playing at Championship level or higher? Idiots.

I don't think the Man City 'A' team will be playing in the JPT anytime soon!

Even if a 'B' team get to the final, they'll have played what - 5, 6 games over the course of a few months. Who or what does that benefit? How is that better than going out on loan, when even if it's only for a month the player will play the same amount of games. JESUS AT THE CENTRE
