This can be something different to normal football, they can even change the rules to whatever they want, and the regular leagues can cling on for a few years, drop the spending down to suit whatever tv deal they get and there will be two separate games to watch. I would love that, even if there's absolutely zero chance of any of it happening. The league will fold and football will never be the same once this goes through.
No, what im saying is that if these clubs want a Super League then cool.
If the Prem wants to kick them out then cool.
If UEFA bans them from ECL and players from Europe then cool.
If FIFA bans them from world cups then cool.

I just want everyone to understand what the rules are and accept that they have to be consistent.

Again though we both agree it won't happen.
