Out of curiosity, how have you managed to get a licence for this?

Isn't it something like £266 to get a licence, which now you've left Rivals obviously isn't paid for you.

Is it anything to do with the following quote:

"Some years ago, to recognise the contribution of fanzines, DataCo struck a deal. It agreed that clubs could officially "nominate" one fanzine each that would then pay a token £1 and be allowed to publish fixtures."

you are correct with this Hilly. A couple of weeks ago I met up with Christine and they agreed to write me a letter allowing the site to show the fixtures for Darlo. After a few phonecalls to the football league and Press Association a fax was sent off and a license issued, all for the nice some of £1.15. We have tried to get access to league tables and player stats but the league quoted us £2k plus for the rights for that, we are investigating other possibilities
