Quote: Alan "When I backed two leagues of ten, I meant one 'Super League', for want of a better phrase, and a league below, where clubs could be developed as potential 'SL' members, with many of the current 'Licensing' criteria in place. (as long as the 'SL' clubs met them too) I would see the aim of that second league, to develop 'British', and only British perhaps, players.'"
Isn't that fundamentally where we find ourselves now only the teams below can't fund themselves to bridge the gap to the league above?
My ultimate issue here is that of player pool: if Chp clubs were given 500k funding... they'd just give the same poor-ordinary players more money and that money would be wasted
