A father in Kent has launched a campaign to have the junior football reserves team re-named because it makes the poor little kiddies who don't make the first team feel second best.
Presumably both teams will be called the first team, or the "A" team. No doubt the teams shouldn't have a captain either, because the children who aren't chosen to be captain will be upset. We've already had some halfwit saying that league positions for under 11 years football teams shouldn't be published because the losers might be upset.
If this attitude takes hold imagine the scene in 20 years time. The Premiership will consist of 92 teams, and there will be no Championship, Division 1 or 2. Everyone will be allowed to have the F.A. Cup in their trophy cabinet for one 3 day period, and all football matches will end in a draw, probably goal-less so that there is no goal difference to mark a team as not quite as good as any other team.
Of course the standard of football will have fallen as there will be no point in being brilliant if you are not allowed to win, or not even allowed a place in the first team because somebody who isn't as good wants to play but can't be bothered to put in the effort to improve.
