I very much enjoyed this, and I think it represents a far better way of picking a 'super league' than just a bunch of big clubs self-selecting themselves. Having said that, it would be interesting to perform the exercise for 2011 and 2021. I think there's an argument for bundling all the large markets together so we might get a bit more competition in the domestic leagues, but relegation has always been the problem. I did wonder about the kind of re-election system that the Football League used to employ, or creating some kind of ground-size requirement like I think rugby had at least for a while. I say that as a long-standing follower of AFC Bournemouth. I appreciated the time in the Premier League, but with such a small ground it wasn't likely to become self-sustaining.
