I don't buy into that "Sky says SL has to have a London club" nonsense.
I think Sky see SL as a good sport to fill their summer schedule when there is no soccer. It gets good viewing figures and advertising revenue probably more than covers the small amount sky invest in SL. I don't think Sky could give two hoots about which clubs are in SL and whether they are financially viable as long as people keep watching at home and advertising time is sold.
Make no bones, licensing was invented by SL and administrators with their heads in the clouds to protect the sports elite. No thought for the rest of the game.
Putting Fev in SL will solve nothing. Three leagues of 8 will solve nothing. A massive broom taken to the cronies at Red Hall and complete change in focus and direction is what is needed to save RL from itself. As long as matches are played in summer, Sky will pay as we have a great product without much competition
