This is all very well – possibly the answer to England winning a World Cup in 2022/26 – but howill it work?
Say ManUtd put in a B team and ended up playing a vital promotion match against say)Barnet or Aldershot. Utd have to win – would they be able to switch Wayne Rooney, van Persie et al to their B team? Or would the B team be a completely separate entity – in which case it just means the bigger clubs can get round the financial fair play bit by keeping their lesser players on one side.
Possibly – repeat possibly – good for the rich big clubs – no use to the small strugglers.
