On this week’s show I talk with Lorna Falconer from The Football League about her role in football.
Formed in 1888 by its twelve founder members, The Football League is the world’s original league football competition and is the template for leagues the world over.
With 72 member clubs, it is also the largest single body of professional clubs in European football and is responsible for administering and regulating the Football League, Capital One Cup and Johnstone’s Paint Trophy, as well as reserve and youth football.
They encourage all parts of the community to enjoy league football by watching matches or taking part in other activities through member clubs and they also generate the commercial revenue that sustains and fuels football’s growth.
