The BASA monster
In that, i think you've highlighted the biggest hurdle to your concept.
"As long as they agree to common delivery model"
I really think it would like trying to convert Japan to communism.
Why would the successful clubs agree to terms that would bring them back to peggings with the other clubs, and why would lower clubs agree to terms that wouldn't bring them back to par. Its a catch 22 unfortunatly.
However, are there any portions of this idea that we could extract and try to implement anyway?
