Plans for a restructuring of the Football League into a five league, 100-team competition have been scrapped after talks with the Football Association broke down. The FA was not prepared to move FA Cup games to create more weekend slots for matches.
The plans were unpopular with the non-league system which would have lost its leading clubs. Clubs might have found it difficult to financially sustain league membership.
