This is why many football fans were against the creation of the Premiership when it happened in 1992, and why I won't watch the Premiership anyway. Its all about money - who has it, who doesn't, and who will get the most over the next 12 months - the deal for TV money, and now the top four are fairly settled, all the rewards of the Champions League (which is the big pay packet) is theirs. Until the entry of Abramovich, whenever that was, Chelsea would have been a second level team - like Everton and Spurs - with a chance in the cups, but none in the league, but now they have bought their way into the top standard.
