Danny 2,151 Posted October 10, 2018 Share Posted October 10, 2018 He talks a lot about debt and parachute payments but all he really wants is more TV money for Leeds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
6666 1,291 Posted October 10, 2018 Share Posted October 10, 2018 Probably needs to look for a new name for his idea seeing as the u21 league is called "Premier League 2" already... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smiley Culture 1,651 Posted October 11, 2018 Author Share Posted October 11, 2018 There’s an argument that he has a point here. The Championship is one of the most watched leagues and is televised a decent amount and clubs probably deserve more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smiley Culture 1,651 Posted October 11, 2018 Author Share Posted October 11, 2018 The cynic in me would suggest that the idea for this would be to take a certain amount of clubs to create a “PL2” where they get a higher share of TV money and where they’ll close the door on the rest, those less fortunate who won’t be including will be cut adrift with a pittance.

Honey Honey 3,766 Posted October 11, 2018 Share Posted October 11, 2018 Basically stop dividing tv money across the league and give it all to Leeds? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No issue if you want to create a league that is commercialized but Premier League implies "top flight" and the name just doesn't work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Effectively, I see it as stop spreading the TV money across all Football League sides, give most/all of it to the second tier sides, where we’ll call it something stupid like PL2.

Yeah that's what it looks like to me as well. Stupid idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
