Do the players have multi-year deals? I would imagine a demotion in league means less money for teams? Dont players want to be in top tier?
Yep, so clubs lose their #epl tv money.
The best players have clauses in their contracts that allow them to leave if relegated.
But club staff are fired and the lesser players go down and earn less.
It's absolutely brutal.
Sounds like a system built on the incentive to win.
Is there a lot of cheating? PED? Bribery? Anything like that?
Yep, all that matters is winning.
None of that socialist bullshit that rewards losing via the draft in US sports.
Bribery and match fixing stuff happens more in the lower leagues.
Where there's less scrutiny.
So in England, there are 3 fully professional leagues under the #epl, then semi pro levels, then amateur.
Are all EPL teams in England?
There seems to be a lot of crosspollination in terms of players and even who teams play.
As for the players and cross pollination.
So this is club football and just like a normal job where anyone can work overseas and play for who they like.
But in international football (like at the World Cup), you can't change.
If you win your domestic league, you earn the right to play other domestic winners in the UCL as well.
What is #UCL?
We had that last week or so. How is that different from #epl?
I think it was an italian versus english matchup.
So the #epl (English Premier League) is the top division in England.
But every single country in the world also has their own domestic league and pyramid system.
Even the USA! (link in next reply)
---> USA pyramid
There's no promotion/relegation between the US pyramid, but one day there will be.
You might have also seen the #ucl trending?
That's the UEFA Champions League.
UEFA is the European confederation which is made up of all the leagues in Europe.
