Now, here’s the key one...

Should the proposed change happen, that will change, essentially giving the ‘big six’ plus Everton, Soton & West Ham special voting rights.
This would mean that anything put to a vote would only need 6 of those 9 teams with ‘special rights’ to vote it through.
This could impact English football in any way you can imagine. The big six can essentially make any decision they want to as they’d hold the cards.

That means all of the below can potentially happen once they have power;
Euro League, higher TV revenues exclusively for the big 6, other league changes, abolishment of cups, introduction of other tournaments and pretty much anything else you can realistically think of.

Project Bigger Picture isn’t about saving the EFL. It isn’t about preserving English football or doing it for the fans, who are clearly just an afterthought.

If this happens and I really, really hope it doesn’t, English football is dead.
It won’t happen overnight. The change will be gradual but the power will be in the hands of foreign owners with no objective other than making themselves richer.
