I read a few condemnations but there was a minority in approval (or qualified approval). I suspect their old school fans hate it but their tv based global fan base are all in favour.

... and that’s now; if this gets in all it will take is six votes to change it.
One also notes that nowhere there does it say how the money for PPV will be split up; if it gets in we will no doubt all be told that United should get the lions share of the PPV receipts for Burnley vs United, and as Burnley won’t have a vote to vote against it then the PL are likely to agree.

Even stupider kick off times to cater for the Far East market.

In that situation, wouldn’t each club just pocket however much they take in through their own platform? So if Burnley sold 10k subscriptions on their website at £5 each they would get £50k, and Man U sold 500k subscriptions on their website at £20 (or whatever extortionate fee they settled on) then they pocket £10M. It’s definitely the rich getting richer, and actually probably MUCH worse than United simply asking for something like a 75/25 split.

well no - under that scenario the away team would have to have its own cameras etc.

God, they really have spent a lot of time and effort on drawing up proposals that will hopefully be dismissed straight away

Sky employ him and that other idiot to spout their propaganda. Hardly a surprise they played for the clubs behind this.

Kinda snakish. But the monetary value is the selling point that not many can argue is a bad thing. It's the concessions it's based on.
No one is asking the reason WHY those changes in the structure of the premier league are needed. Are they saying that in order to increase the funding to the EFL 2 clubs have to leave...and the longest serving clubs dictate how the league is ran?

My understanding, and the way I read it, was that the criteria used was longest stay since the team were last promoted (in the cases where they've previously been relegated from the prem) rather than years spent in the prem in total since it was originally formed. Villa have only just come up and Newcastle were down relatively recently and not for the first time either.
Never thought I’d be posting a Martin Samuel piece in the Mail, but he is spot on here:
MARTIN SAMUEL: Project Big Picture' is a disgusting Big Six power grab
MARTIN SAMUEL: Rick Parry helped destroy the fabric of English football once, and now he's going for it again. Project Big Picture? Far from saving our game, all it would do is reduce.www.dailymail.co.uk
Conn should be ashamed of himself
"Those nine clubs are to be afforded ‘long-term shareholder status’, would have unprecedented power, even able to veto new owners at other Premier League clubs, decide on the chief executive"
Rick Parry backs what Man U and the RS have put forward, hmmmmm...............promise of a job I wonder.

I think that's basically what is being pushed, the champions league will have 8 groups of 6, they each play each other twice, top 2 go through to the last 16, place 3 and 4 will drop into the Europa league and 5 and 6 will drop into the new European conference (new cup winners cup).
Premier league will probably still only get 7 European places, it will just be 6 champions league and 1 Europa league.
