  English Football League
"League" football in England is organised into four divisions, the foremost being the FA Premier League, the remaining three remaining under the jurisdiction of what is legally known as simply The Football League.
Professional football teams from Wales (Cardiff City, Wrexham, and Swansea City) play in the English Football League, thus largely disqualifying themselves from the UEFA club competitions, although lower teams play in the League of Wales.
There are also competitions restricted to lower-division clubs: the Football League Trophy (Associate Members' Cup) for members of the Second and Third Divisions, the FA Trophy for semi-professional non-league clubs, and the FA Vase for lower-ranking non-league clubs.

 Singer & Friedlander Football Review 2000-01 Season
For a number of academic and non-academic football historians, there is a common assumption that big, successful football clubs began to attract fans from outside of their immediate catchment areas during the 1960s.
In press reports on successful football clubs in the 1940s and 1950s, supporters from a variety of locational backgrounds were often referred to, suggesting that some football clubs at least were anything but a preserve for people of the immediate locale.
To explain the existence of 'out of town' English football supporters in the late 1940s, 1950s and 1960s it is important to note that most of the teams that drew fans from wide geographical areas were situated in regions that had excellent and affordable rail communications that easily allowed the movement of fans.

 Singer & Friedlander Football Review 2000-01 Season
In 1998, Ridden suggested that, as he was approaching retirement (he retired in 2000), it might be appropriate for the Premier League to appoint someone prior to his departure to take over responsibility for refereeing at the highest level in England.
Don has also 'opened up' the world of match observation to include two exprofessional footballers and PFA employees, Mick Maguire and John Bramall, and he says the involvement of non-referees is a development he would like to see encouraged.
When he took on the job, English referees were the lowest paid of those officiating in the top 7 European Leagues - they are now third in that list, earning £900 per game with the possibility of an additional payment of £300 per game, depending upon the number of matches refereed.

 2000-01 in English football - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Sir Alex Ferguson became the first manager in English football to win three successive league titles after Manchester United were crowned Premiership champions for the third season running.
Before the season was over he had agreed an English record fee of £19million with PSV Eindhoven for Ruud van Nistelrooy, the 25-year-old Dutch striker who had agreed to sign for United a year earlier, but his original move was scrapped after he suffered a serious knee injury.
At the bottom of the football league, the battle for survival went to the very last day of the season, with the bottom two sides Torquay United and Barnet playing each other at Barnet's Underhill Ground.

 BBC News | EDUCATION | Heads hit out at book shortages
A separate report by the EPC suggested that the smallest junior schools should each be spending more than £2,000 on maths books a year, and the largest schools more than £6,000, to be able to implement the government's national numeracy strategy.
The results of the survey were revealed on Tuesday as the government launched Maths Year 2000, which is designed to support the strategy and promote greater interest in maths.
At the launch of Maths Year 2000, the Education Secretary, David Blunkett, announced that primary schools in England will receive an extra £9m to support maths, bringing the total to be spent on supporting the second year of the national numeracy strategy to £64m.

 TENNESSEE STATE UNIVERSITY PLACED ON PROBATION, GRANTS-IN-AID REDUCED IN SEVERAL SPORTS   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-11)
For example, in mid-1996, football staff members contacted an enrolled student-athlete at another university to encourage the individual to transfer to the university without first obtaining a release allowing such a conversation to occur.
The institution will further reduce grants in football by.56 during 2000-01; 2 during 2001-02; and 1.65 during 2002-03 to account for the football grant reductions pledged to be imposed in 1997 but which were never applied.
Therefore, based upon the average number of football equivalencies at the university for the past five years - 60.3 - the university will be limited to 57.8 equivalencies for 2000-01; 56.3 for 2001-02; and 56.8 for 2002-03.

 Singer & Friedlander Football Review 2000-01 Season
In the context of Celtic and Rangers, this financial motivation is perhaps even less surprising, given that the title 'Old Firm' was given to these 2 teams just after the turn of the 19th century, not in recognition of their sporting rivalry but rather of the business aspects of their games.
Whether we are talking about football clubs as social institutions, as businesses, or as both, this lack of consultation with their supporter/ stakeholders (or their customers if you prefer) is a little surprising.
While defining what makes a football supporter is inherently complex, along with factors like success, identity, tradition and belonging, one important factor historically has been rivalry, a focus on 'the other'.

The first should be achieved by tax reform, increased transparency and reform of the extra-budgetary institutions which have been primarily responsible for fiscal incontinence in recent years, particularly the state-owned banks, agricultural support regime and the social security system.
Measures in place under the IMF programme (which began in 2000) should allow a swing in the primary budget from a 2.8 percent of GNP deficit in 1999 to a 3.7 percent of GNP surplus in 2000 (excluding earthquake expenses).
Long-term improvement should be sustained by the use of privatisation receipts (expected to be 18 billion U.S. dollars over three years) for debt reduction and by sharp falls in nominal and real interest rates as inflation falls and the programme gains credibility.
