That was inevitably going to happen, Dubai.

The disproportionate wealth of the relegated teams from the Premier to the promoted teams from L1 is well out of scale, and that includes the average Championship clubs in between just staying afloat in the Champ.

Like you say though, we were fished (John West Style) out of the deep end at the right time or we would have continued downwards back to where we were a few years ago. I don't think any of us can deal with that again, teetering on the edge of being gone forever.. We're going to see a lot more clubs go through it and some will even vanish in our life times. Clubs that have operated for over 100 years. Gone, for the sake of greed.

Other than cup upsets from time to time. The true days of "anyone beating anyone" are greatly diminishing. The beautiful game continues to be destroyed by greedy business tyrants whom only have a love for the money, never the fans or local community.
