20 clubs, including five TBD as permanent members once the SL figures out which current non-members can rake in the most fan interest/revenue.

Balanced schedule -- 57 matches -- one home, one away, one in a neutral (read: off-continent) venue.

Top 8 sides make the playoffs; from there, it's just like American sports to get to a final.

Plus there'd probably be a random draw Cup competition.

So figure 70-odd matches a season for the "best" of the sides which approximates what we play now across all competitions (I think).

Fuck sake.

Imagine playing a "big game" every fucking week?

These big games are big because they're every now and then. That makes them special, exciting, affairs. See Dortmund away last week.

This schedule completely misses the fucking point.
 
We could've sat on the fence and watch it all unfold

And ended up shaping neither, so being at the back of the queue when the deals are being negotiated and agreed with member clubs?

Not sure that was ever a realistic option mate. Our owners aren’t idiots, happy to see their investment tank off the back of a shit deal because they wanted to sit out the court of public opinion!
