Are you in favour to end the premier league relegation? (#3219) on 18-10-2011 at 15:21:14
Several foreign-owned Premier League clubs want to scrap relegation, according to League Managers Association (LMA) chief Richard Bevan. If more clubs are sold to foreign investors they may have enough votes to force changes.
According to Sir Alex ferguson, a future without relegation and promotion from and to the English Premier League would be akin to suicide.
"If you look at the Championship (second division) at the moment, we have eight teams with tradition and history," Ferguson was quotes in British media on Tuesday.
"What do you say to those eight teams? That they can never play in the premier division. I think that would be absolute suicide for the rest of the league and particularly the teams in the Championship.
"You might as well lock the doors. The only place you can make money and realise your ambitions is in the Premier League and you can't take that away from clubs like Nottingham Forest, Leeds United, Sheffield United and Sheffield Wednesday.
"All these great teams, who formed the nucleus of our old First Division all those years ago. It would be unwise."
What do you guys think?

Suicide for relegation to be axed, if these foreign owners want to start taking fooball apart then I suggest that they go to another country and try their luck their. I think that the premier league is now made up of 70% of foreign owners and this is what we in this country want to be very aware of.
