So won't we now be seeing teams happier to place 6th & 7th than 5th,

I don't think so. In competitive league you can be relegated. Then Your incomes in next season will decrease by 40%. In fact relegation series very often are more interesting than play-offs ;-) I saw many times situation when salaries of teams, which fight in relegation are two times higher than salaries of teams which fight for title ;-) Because defeat in relegation is moooooooooooore painful for club than defeat in finals.

Thanks for that summary.

Coming back to a point I raised before - from a sportsmanship and excitement point of view, it might be better to remove income from the Sunday Night decision game. Plenty teams simply tank game 2 go get the extra money (for free, if the team is high oods favourite). Mind sharing a thought abuot this?

Thx for your answer, I like it.
In that way that you see it it's a nice change for really most managers, less tanking and etc. The game will be more interesting,.
I know what the new changes bring, but on my first look I've seen that 1st place loose money and I didn't like that. But on this way the game is more competitive and that's good.

As I said before, the change about the 5th place is excellent.

It's good to hear some expert opinion and explanation.

Regards

This is where we hold them!

If it was a financial bonus for winning a title, like in Tournament, believe me that we would not have such situations ;)
