[QUOTE="higgik, post: 1015743, member: 74704"] I agree with the owners not wanting to split their share, but the league needs to be ring fenced, and have a good spread across the country. Revenue sharing is vital to create as level playing field as possible. Also national league clubs need to realise that there are only so many places at the top table and that becoming feeder teams for the top clubs will be a way of ensuring they survive. Finally, the Championship needs to be linked with the A league, effectively they become feeder teams for Premiership. Just look at how the G league works in basketball across the pond as well as the other sports having 'farm' teams. With this last point, it makes it clearer that there needs to be a top limit of 16 teams in the league, so that the few in the Championship can decide if they have the finances to get there. Also, any new team would have to 'buy' a share in the league, so that would pay some back to the current shareholders. [/QUOTE]
