Premier League should be Just 10/12 teams

Other than last season, with Leicester,s freakish win, its the same top six season on season. They could play each other 3 times, home and away plus on a neutral ground, neutral ground maybe abroad, US, China etc. Then you could have Premier 2, (Championship now) with say 20 teams, which would be of higher quality, playing home and away, with 2 up 2 down, maybe with a play off between 3rd Vs 4th to play 2nd to go up!

I'm sorry but for me this is one of the worst ideas I have ever seen.

Guess that means splitting tv money between just the 10/12 teams? Be laughing all the way to the bank!

15 teams have finished top six since the year 2000, Southampton as well as leicester last year.West Ham finished 7th and took the 3rd europa cup spot. i presume you didnt mean those clubs?
5 home games a season sounds a great idea though.

Yep, the horrible words 'closed shop' spring to mind!
The way football is going, it won't be long before clubs are completely franchised, if some aren't already!
