FA chairman still pursuing B league

FA chairman Greg Dyke has told a panel of MPs he still hopes to introduce a controversial B league, reports BBC Sport. The 67-year-old was criticised when he attempted to introduce a new tier for Premier League second teams between League Two and the Conference in a bid to develop young English talent.

That plan was rejected by the Football League and prompted some protests from supporters.

However, Dyke told politicians: "The game is not over yet."
