21 out of 24 teams wanted more time on improving terms and deciding this and I don't blame when compared to the PL elite deal.
WTF …...wonder what the EFL board got as bungs
I get that, but should we f'uck over L1 and L2 for a better deal for Championship clubsThe cancer has always been greed and the football league, league by name not by nature
, should have been stronger back in the 90's when Sky first came along. I get that the 'so called' elite have more exposure etc but as we, and others, have found, you can't be certain of always being among the chosen ones.
I remember when the Noblot (or possibly Wigwambam) chairman wanted to make the top division a closed shop with no relegation. It's just pure greed that drives the clubs on and we are too thick to flag down the gravy train
That's why any football 'competition' is wank
I don’t think it has to be at the expense of L1 and L2, the EFL have a great product in the Championship with a number of household names in it and for me they undersell themselves. I don’t think the Championship clubs are necessarily looking for a bigger slice of the pie, I think they think the total pie should be bigger in the first place.
