I'm not sure how many of you read independent fan websites, but you may have noticed a lot have closed down and the rest are all unable to show the fixture lists.

This is due to the greed in football, which dictates that vast amounts of money must be spent by anyone wanting to publish the fixture lists of any commercial football league. Legal action has been swung around like a hammer to stop individuals showing the fixtures.

Could everyone take a little time to sign the petition below - the current number of signatures is a little low - there are hundreds of thousands of fans who should sign this!

Thanks smile

Signed.

Cost a bit don't they! A few years back I looked into starting a footie website business and enquired about a licence to show fixtures.... prices ranged from about 8-15k.
