Either blindy support expansion in all forms on here or get ridiculed and abused.
Im actually in favour of expanding the game and nothing would make me happier than to follow a sport that was as popular as Association Football.
I also believe that Perez has more vision and drive than anything we have seen in the UK for a very long time, if ever.
However, if something is clearly flawed and I believe the 2 x 10 (SL 1 & 2) is definitely flawed, then it's only right to "call it our".
There is nothing wrong with having dreams but, in any business model, there has to be a little more pragmatism.
Also, and more importantly, there needs to be proper thought put in as to how we "marry up" RL in the UK (and France) with a few wanabe clubs in N. America and exactly how we achieve the best outcome for the sport.
Back to SL 1 & 2, NOBODY will give a toss about the 2nd tier of the sport, other than passing though to any club vying for promotion.
It's just dreamland stuff to expect the same investment and desire to watch the 2nd tier of our sport.
Hell, we cant even sell the top flight well enough, never mind the next rung down on the ladder.
