Gibson is perfectly entitled to support this (or not).
I’m still getting my head round it but, a few points,
A power grab? - they have it now financially anyway. The Premier League gets TV rights largely as a result of the big 6. Southampton, Sheff Utd et al bring little or nothing to the financial party.
They are proposing giving 25% of that revenue to be shared with other clubs. That is a game changer.
The funds are likely to increase which just makes the pie bigger for everyone (including the big 6 and EFL clubs).
Reports suggest this could protect every club for the medium term,
There is a real worry that all future power would be with the 6 and that this has been cooked up by two American owners.
I’d like to see the league cup stay and for prem clubs top 6 not to participate.
Football has changed and people like me get all gooey eyed about pre SKY.
The future for those businesses is not with the local community it is with with the audiences of China, Far East, Middle East and beyond.
