Round the table to discuss the big issues
THE Non-League Paper and The FA are joining forces again this year for a monthly feature debating the grassroots game in all its forms – kicking off with a round table at Wembley stadium.
The NLP sat down with head of League and Club Services Laurence Jones, FA Leagues Committee chairman Ray Lewis, National League System manager Matt Edkins, former Conference champion and Glebe boss Anwar Uddin, now The Football Supporters’ Federation Diversity and Campaigns manager, and Tring Athletic’s Liam Irons, who is also capped by England Cerebral Palsy, for a lengthy discussion about Non-League football.
The agenda included why we should celebrate this level of football and the challenges it is currently facing.
Restructuring, ground grading, diversity and inclusion, finances, Non-League Finals Day as well as the thrill of playing for your country were just a few of the topics covered in an insightful and open conversation we will bring you over the coming weeks.
