The Champions League will expand before a Super League ever comes to fruition.
If I'm understanding you correctly you're suggesting the "lesser" teams would forgo huge amounts of cash because they'd be fearful of being uncompetitive? It's a nice idea but you are placing a lot of faith in dogs like Kroenke and the vampires at Utd and Liverpool. In fact, what if Stan and the gang know something we don't? Their risky investments would suddenly be a whole lot less risky. It'll happen alright. For two reasons. First because football can't go on the way it is going. No matter what the economy or micro-economy, if you spend more than you earn then you die. Second, greed will always, always, always win the day.
