Listening to the radio yesterday regarding project stitch up, it was said that representatives from Liverpool and Manchester Utd in the form of one of Liverpool's owners and one of the Glasier family plus Rick Parry, had contacted Greg Clarke at the FA earlier this year with the proposals for funding help for the football pyramid.
Greg Clarke stated once he realised that they were proposing the terms for the big Six as a condition he refused to back their idea's or offer support for it. Clarke said the was then told they would look at forming a break away league if they did not get FA support for this proposal.

Let’s get it out there for all us lesser teams outside the big six to go hell for leather no holds barred and give them a game to remember from begining to end. 100% full on attack. Leave nothing on the pitch. Everybody’s cup final.

This plan has been in the pipeline for quite a while and it is released at the optimum moment when the livelihood of clubs is at stake. The payment could in all tense and purposes be a one off, as there would be no guarantee of future support when the Big 6 have control of the game. EFL clubs of limited resources and ambition will jump at the chance of a cash injection but the piper has to be paid. Imagine a league where a relegated club only receives half of what they would have normally got whilst the income of the Big 6 grows. Imagine viewing rights of the Big 6 going pay per view whilst Sky and BT show Burnley vs Crystal Palace. Imagine a club looking to gain powerful investment that could take their club forward, only for it to be vetoed because it affects the interests of the Big 6. A truly awful proposal but there are plenty who will barter away whatever competition is left in football for thirty pieces of silver.

Great points Notts. The loonies would be running the asylum.

100% correct Notts, Shameful American owner's who are only intrested in how much money they can make. They have no intrest in the game, only what they can bleed from it. Strange how the 49er's now want a bigger stake in Leeds.
