[QUOTE="JJFlash, post: 881501, member: 72729"] With two fewer teams in the top flight, there'd be two fewer home games and the gate receipts would go down, unless of course, the admission prices then go up by about 10% to compensate. From a rugby point of view there are advantages (eg players play fewer games and have fewer injuries) and disadvantages (eg the usual clubs will probably be up and down each season). So the Irish and Worcester, as Olyy rightly says, may not support the idea. (I've not included Sale as I firmly believe that they've got the potential to stay in the top flight) [/QUOTE]
