I agree Tom. In the long term though the fans of the have nots (everyone but five or six clubs) will get pissed off with things and vote with their feet. I'm not even sure the big clubs fans will not get fed up with it all.

The Premiership will always need fans and if they are not careful the whole experience of going to top football will become very sterile. The only way to play against their star studded teams will be ten men behind the ball, which is not much fun for anyone.
