If joining the 'super league' doesn't affect domestic league status then it presumably means the end of any hope Leicester, Everton, West Ham, or any other club with ambition, have of ever reaching the next level, elite status (call it what you want). Surely us, and the other five will fill the top six places in the league every season because we'll have an even greater share of the spoils than we already enjoy. Apart from what appears to be the gross unfairness of it, signing up to a proposal that will be managed by the US Mafia seems like we'd be keeping our enemies far too close for comfort. It's a win/win situation for them with regard to us, if we sign up, they get a huge say in our finances, if we don't sign then we're just where they always wanted us, outside the clique.
