The Random Army

A few years back I had an idea which emerged from a growing contempt for Premier league football, TV deals, fat cat footballers and the rapidly increasing demise of lower league football that was a result.

This idea was “The Random Army”, the concept being to mobilise like minded football fans to group together and en-masse attend a randomly chosen lower league football game, as such adding a much needed and welcome boost to the match attendance and the home clubs coffers.

The hope was that the “Army” could become a movement publicising the plight of lower league football and hopefully spread from a local base to being a national entity.

Sadly due to personal and work commitments I couldn’t give the idea the time needed to establish it, yet I did get the chance to take in some great games at Accrington, Blyth, Hyde, Mansfield to mention a few.

The reason I bring this up is not to “resurrect” the idea, but to ask would it be of interest to the UK based managers of Top100 to meet up say once a month to take in a “random” game of lower league football?

In a way taking our online community up a level and into a social community.

Obviously there may be geographical issues but I thought I would just throw the idea out there and see if anyone would be interested in the first instance.

Please take time to comment negatively or positively to the idea so I can either bury it or buy a mini-bus !!!!
