The role of the PL:
1. To organise a league competition.
2. To maximise the income of the PL by selling broadcasting rights to that competition all round the world.
3. To distribute the income fairly amongst the clubs, cynically avoiding the need to fund other levels of the football pyramid where possible.
4. To create rules which preserve the pre-eminence of the redshirts and punish any club who dares to challenge them.
5. To instruct referees on who we want to win the league.
6. To waste huge sums on legal wild goose chases.
Not sure about the first two ....
