Chelsea chairman, Todd Boehly, has called for the Premiership to bring in a four-club tournament to decide which sides get relegated

Chelsea Chairman, Todd Boehly, has suggested that a four-club relegation tournament be brought in to decide which sides get relegated from the Premiership.

He went on to say that the Premier League need to grasp ideas already in place within various sport around the USA. Another idea he spoke about was that of a North Vs South all star game - the reasoning behind the notion is that it would raise more finance according to Boehly.

Thoughts !!

The Prem managers whine enough as it is because their little darlings may have to play more than once a week.

Jurgen Klopp not too happy with it, he said - "When he finds a date for that he can call me. In American sports these players have four-month breaks''.

Klopp went on to add - "Does he want to bring the Harlem Globetrotters as well ?"

Ridiculous idea regarding a North Vs South fixture and I agree with Klopp on that one.

I am not too keen on the four-club relegation tournament either, pointless exercise. Just leave it as it is.


How far off is the revival of a two-tier system involving the Premiership and the EFL Championship I wonder. The EFL only get peanuts as it is now, a total cut off of funds would be disastrous.

I think most countries of the world are envious of our FL they should leave it well alone, it's people like these that have allowed the prem to be the circus that it is today, it kind of mirrors society I suppose we shouldn't be surprised.

no thanks next he will be wanting bye weeks and playoffs to determine the champions next....


gurantee that super league idea will be brought up again in the future despite the backlash it caused last time.
