"It means it's difficult for us to compete, we're competing against clubs with parachute payments and it encourages people to overspend, which can't be good for the game."
Made me chuckle but does that man have no shame?

what happens if one of their big six gets relegated?
does the team who have been in the premiership the longest take up that place
----------------------------------------------------------------------
I think by the time that might happen, they will have voted relegation out. The Premier League will be the biggest 18 clubs, the dream for small clubs to one day go toe to toe with the big boys will be over...and that will kill it for a lot of fans. Maybe the 14 clubs should vote the big 6 out now!

And of course it is no surprise that the two unmentionable Red clubs from the other side of the Pennines are the main players behind this - talk about ' I'm alright Jack' .
( Well actually replace with Glazer or Henry)
Mr Ridsdale you have a very bad memory or you are in complete denial. - oh I forgot it was all just a dream to you!

Actually do you ever get the feeling that a break away top flight is on the cards?

You’re right Wilko, and then it will pave the way for a European Super League.

Giving the power to just a few clubs is the first sign this is a bad idea! Some EFL clubs are being dazzled by the £250m but it’s just an advance not additional funds, right?

Looks like it got voted down.
Good

Looks like a couple of clubs have backtracked.

Premier League clubs have "unanimously agreed" that 'Project Big Picture' will not be "endorsed or pursued".

Does this mean that this x-Liverpool bod Rick Parry should scrape his fat ass of his nice comfy FL chair and find a trapdoor to fall through?..
If things had have gone through they would have done with his blessings!..

Parry is a parasite of the worst order.
That plan was a shameless power grab by Glazer and Henry. I'm amazed it has failed, to be honest.
