In an FA deal rumored to be worth several hundred thousand pounds, the gorgeous Cowell has purchased Exeter United and changed it's name to X-Factor United. the team will be granted instant promotion to the premiership and will be made up entirely from contestants on the show.
The format for the program will be very similar to X-Factor. Budding Footballmen will audition in front of a panel of esteemed judges including John Barnes, Ben Elton and the late Steve Cram. the audition will include a few minutes of keepy-uppy followed by a song.
The lucky contestants will be narrowed down and sent of to Football Boot Camp where they will eventually be split into three categories.: Men, Women and the Over 40s. There will be a series of live football matches running all the way up to Christmas where it's believed the winning team will go up against the winners of X-Factor for Christmas number one.
So Footballs fans, is this the future of football or merely a money-making scam by a greedsman. I for one will sit back and let the football decide.

Echoes of the Ebbsfleet takeover this time last year... Everyone was whinging then, but we went on to win the FA Trophy. I'm sick of hearing the prawn cocktail brigade mouth off about teams selling out, when it's only by showing initiative like this that minnows will ever compete in the guppy tank.
