Right, I forgot you guys have "The Draft", so failing is an advantage, doubly so if you can sell your draft picks, because then you can keep losing by having sold away the mechanism for getting you competitive again.
I am so glad the proposed "European super league" was killed off so hard, so that we don't get a franchise model, it produces so many adverse incentives.
The thing I like about EU football is that if your team sucks arse through a garden hose too long, your entire team gets demoted to a lower league.
That would put a fire under some asses!
Note that it's not a European thing. It's how most football leagues around the world work.
Drafts and no relegation.
