    Certainly the owners of the big clubs want that. I'm surprised they didn't kill relegation when they created the Premier League. And it benefits the stars. But everyone else?

        In so far as it could give other clubs beyond the big clubs a chance to win the title? Yes.

        The European soccer model has not adapted well to the changes in the game, most notably free agency and TV money. It has taken an already unequal system and exacerbated it. In the last 20-30 years it has been the same clubs winning the domestic titles and the same clubs winning in the Champions League. The only way to break the monotony is for a sketchy billionaire to spend millions.

        There are better ways to break up the 40-50 qualified clubs in each country beyond a Pro/Rel, Division setup.

            Divide the clubs that can meet First Division criteria (stadium, financial requirements) into regional based conferences and have a playoff at the end of the season. Impose a salary cap and a transfer budget limit.

            At a realistic level there are only so many clubs that can be first division teams, it’s 40-50 in England, 30-40 in Germany, and far far lower in even Spain and Italy. The financial divide between top clubs and even mid level clubs is huge and only getting worse.

            Of course the other option is a European Super League but FIFA and UEFA will do anything to prevent that and the top clubs know that and use it to their advantage.

                        Yeah just saw that. Somehow I'm aware of all the losses but not the win. Well, it ain't 2012.
