Money talks!

To be honest I would rather go back to the good old top 3 get promoted, bottom 3 get relegated.

same here. whats the point of playing 46 games only to find you fail to get promoted because a team gets luck in 3 games but finish say 15 points behind you. as others have said its all about the money and tv.
