You seriously need to drop it mate and think.

They'll be 4 teams relegated yes from div 2 and that what will happen every year but in the proposal money will also be given to the FA and no doubt 4 teams will come up for the National League.

What the proposal is doing is basically sticking two fingers up to the PL, EFL and FA. It really doesn't matter what body you are in as you will get a bit of the pie.

I've told you the top 6 are seriously thinking of going in to the EFL if this isn't approved or talks are not seriously discussed over this proposal.

The issue we have right now is 11 clubs could go under by the end of the season if money is coming their way. The Rotherham chairman was nearly crying on Sky Sports today. For me I don't care if the top 6 clubs rule..I care about now and now clubs need support including Bradford.

The proposal is a start expect another one next week but change isn't far away.

 

It really isn't though.

Like the Rotherham said "Football is putting the show on with the lights on but gates not open, money not coming in"

No other deal on the table mate! The government need to do something like the Peterborough owner said but the government are busy giving themselves a 3k payraise.

 

The PL is made up of members. We can say what you read is rubbish.

 

No one is saying the 1st proposal has to be accepted but the bottomline is 250m isn't going to come without changes now.

What's the solution mate? The government not helping.

Bradford City and others will go to the wall. Who cares if it's a power grab? Really! Money will help the EFL in this deal.

 

It's a no brainer for the EFL clubs mate including Bradford.

Walsall Chairman says he's backing it.

 

You're not getting the proposal are you? The PL and Masters can come up with what they won't but the top 6 -9 are wanting change to a put that they will a) join the EFL or B) Create a new league. The PL is nothing without the top 6 clubs. Don't you understand that?

The PL deal is 150m as a LOAN - It's been rejected.

FA David Berstein would be for the FA. We are not controlled by the FA. We are controlled by the EFL.

The proposal by Liverpool & Utd have the EFL support and support by 9 of the PL. Maybe more than 9 after today. So a view changes and this will go through.

 

Listen it's like this!

The EFL don't care what's happening in the PL. The proposal is a no brainer for the EFL.

The PL has a massive problem because the top 6-9 clubs are basically saying they want out.

The EFL need the money now not in 5 years. The government are doing sod all so its about from an EFL point of view get the money now, have a bigger part of the pie going forward.

If 6 clubs, 9 clubs or 20 clubs have the power doesn't matter to the EFL as the PL has the power now anyway.

 

No, they're not. If that was the case then they would just form a super league and wouldn't say they would join the EFL.

However, the extension on pre season will mean more international pre season games/visits I admit that.

 

@Bronco is states about money grabbing Pl owners but what have the owners of Bradford City been? What's Rhodes, Rupp and Lawn?

Just because EFL clubs are not in the PL doesn't mean that the owners of these clubs are not money grabbers. Bradford City don't spend on assets barring players. Isn't that money grabbing in a different way? Not spending to invest on improvements? Loaning the club money. Some might say using the clubs as banks.

 

It was all about opening discussion. As @Dennis keeps on saying this is just the opening proposal.

250m isn't going to come with conditions.

Man City chairman was talking about PL B teams entering the EFL.

What Liverpool & UTD have basically don't is say right things need to change! They have been taking for 3 years! This isn't an overnight thing.

PL are meeting today. Next 2 -4 weeks little changes will be made to the proposal.
