Does the EPL pay some sort of royalty to the FA? If they do, I suppose this is already a way of 'supporting' the lower leagues?

I am sorry but asking EPL clubs to perform charity? That rarely/never happens. The best that clubs can do is donate the gate receipts of the FA/League Cup games to other clubs. Besides money is still TRICKLING down to the lower leagues. Relegated clubs from the EPL are given a sum of money and when they are in the Championship, it'll be spent on players again. smile.gif

EPL clubs are already farming out players to these lower league teams. I mean that is if the argument is regarding the alleged decrease in quality in Lower League football. Luke Steele, was a product from United and he's improving the quality of the lower leagues, among the many players who left Academies to join lower league teams.

Regarding bankrupt clubs, you got to be kidding. You fail at business and you want your rival to bring you back up and running? Try asking United to donate money to Leeds!
