The only way to save the football pyramid is to look at how much the bottom team of a division gets and tell every team in that division that you can& #39;t outspend that money in a year. That& #39;s all your wage budget and transfer budget. That way, if the worst should
@YankeeGunner
happen and you get relegated you still have financial security. Then you take shirt sponsor and all and say, you& #39;re getting 50 mill for 5 years, you can spend an extra 7 mill so you have money left over in case you can& #39;t get another big deal.
The issue that
@YankeeGunner
the P League needs to out spend everyone is because they want the television revenue to constantly in crease. But why does that matter in the big picture? What does a billion pounds TV revenue mean to arsenal winning the league? It doesn& #39;t help us any more that a
@YankeeGunner
ten mill revenue because the TV money is split between the teams. So a billion or a million won& #39;t mean we get closer the Liverpool cos they also get a share of the billion. So why does TV revenue matter?
Well, what about the Champions League? How can we complete
@YankeeGunner
without the billions?
But Europe doesn& #39;t mean anything to the English football pyramid. It does drives a division between top and bottom. Because if the same 4 teams get into Europe they have more chance of competing than 4 random teams each year. So Europe
@YankeeGunner
automatically creates imbalance because it& #39;s a limited pool which makes it elitist.
So you have to decide, mega money or competitiveness. Because ultimately, what do you want more, the best players or a competitive pyramid. And ultimately I think most people have
@YankeeGunner
decided that they& #39;re staying in their bubble. I don& #39;t think any conference team thinks about being in league one let alone winning the Prem. Heck, the top two divisions aren& #39;t even sharing the mnemonic culture. We& #39;re not in league one, but the premier League. We
@YankeeGunner
don& #39;t want a pyramid, we want to be separate. So this debate is already 30 years to late. I remember when people used to say, "you don& #39;t make money in football". Then the Prem came around. We& #39;re already in a league without soul and people are fooling themselves with
@YankeeGunner
thinking there& #39;s any camaraderie between the divisions anymore. People don& #39;t have he attention for 90 minutes any more, let alone a teared structure.
