Madness if true. Can't believe it would happen though.
Potential scrapping of football as we know it.
What would there be for the bottom half clubs to compete for if relegation was abolioshed?

For a while I've thought the best thing for the English game would be for ManUtd, Chelsea, ManCity, Arsenal and Liverpool to **** off and join a European Super league and take all the tv money with them.
The Super League will happen. Partly based on the NFL or similar.
Be quite funny to see the likes of Villa realise they have **** all to play for.
Eh? Teams like Villa will be playing for the English title if it happens, which is far more than they're ever playing for nowadays.
Villa would consider that beneath themselves if the top six went to a ESL.
for if they don't reach the CL, Villa fans will think the same within a couple of years.
Met many Villa fans?
A competition with as rich history as the FA Cup is considered reasonably worthless by the majority of the Premiership. I believe the same would apply to the English title in the circumstances of the ESL.

I'd dance on the corpse of the Premier League as I have long desired the return of the 1st Division, the permier league.
The Championship is already a much more exciting...
I agree with what you're saying, but I meant it was more exciting in terms of the actual league (i.e. promotion, relegation races) as opposed to how exciting the actual matches were.
