The EFL is going to get shafted either way - is it best to be shafted by the 6 biggest clubs, or the whole PL?! |
A 20 club shafting may not be quite so bad for the pyramid as a six club shafting. |  |

I’m hoping Marcus Evans is one of the one’s instead of one of the nine.
The amount of self interest at all levels is destroying the game. Can they not see what a mess this will actually result in? |
I'm sure ME would have been one of the ones, the restructuring and redistribution of media money is something he has spoken about before, even if I would assume he isn't a fan of the proposals in their entirety, which now appear to have been thrown out anyway. |  | | |

I genuinely think it is worse.....
The biggest issue we have is the difference between the bottom of the PL and the Championship - where revenue (without parachute payments) drops from £100m to £15m.
The only way to smooth that out is to have a more even distribution across all the PL and EFL combined (which no one in the PL will vote for), or for the merit payments in the PL to become proper merit payments - so rather than first place receiving £170m and 20th getting £100m - change it so first place gets £250m and 20th gets £50m.
That is how the PL was originally set up - but the international TV deals, which were pocket change and split equally in addition to that, exploded.
I fundamentally disagree with the powers the big 6 want in the reshuffle, but the actual reshuffle on its own definitely has merits. If the voting numbers can be kept as they are, or maybe dropped from 14 to 11 then I'd be happy with it personally and think 90% of football owners would.
The issue we have is the same as League 1 - the smaller clubs in the league vote to end the season to protect themselves. The smaller clubs in the PL will vote to keep their £100m a year, plus parachute payments, when the reality is they are the two things that totally distort the pyramid |  |

All 20 clubs said no to it... *head scratch* | |

True, though if the proposal had passed I think we would have ended up on very little anyway, as the big six would have then voted to keep TV revenue to themselves. | |

Once something is definitely not going to pass sometimes it's politically expedient to present it as unanimous. [Post edited 14 Oct 2020 18:47]
