I find it bizarre that the non-elite franchises think it is ok to be satisfied with developing players and battling to avoid relegation. There should be a class revolt. The worker franchises must be electrified to over-throw the industrial bourgeois elite.
People like to watch big teams not little teams. Big teams create insane tv money that is divided to all teams.

The Swansea-Reading match was worth 60 MILLION! Parity does not create big money. It's just the soccer culture. There are big teams in every league in the world except MLS.
