3 tiers:

  • 16, 16 and 32 teams.

Only 2 teams relegated/promoted between the tiers.

20 teams changed in the bottom tier every year based on Domestic League performance.

so they call it "Open competition"

lol, they really are pretending hard that the competition is open, 2 relegation and promotion between the tiers, it takes a club 3 abysmal years in a row to be eliminated from the competition and 3 amazing years in a row to get into the top league.

Imagine that, Aston Villa wins the PL and they qualify to the equivalent of the COnfrerence league, while 12th placed chelsea competes at the top.
