But worky in a league of nine teams, if they raced the teams twice, would mean 10 weeks apart, but in premiership the team comes around again in 5 weeks then again in another 5 weeks time, too often imo

That makes absolutely no sense.   

Meeting opposing teams twice in a league which runs roughly April to September means meeting twice in 6 months regardless of whether it's a 9 team league or a 6 team league.     

What you're suggesting is that the CL season lasts 16 weeks and the PL season lasts 10 weeks, which is nonsense.

The declaration was 31st October.

So there can't be a 6th team then as they've missed the declaration?

There are several stages to the AGM.   For the first part, only the clubs who took part in the current season are involved.   They go over the finances of the current season, iron out if anyone owes money to any other club, and declare if they want to run the following year.   Presumably everyone except Birmingham has declared an intention to run.

Then for the second part of the AGM (delayed to Jan 6th) they consider any new applications to join the league for next year, and anyone accepted is invited to join in the remaining meetings where they make plans for next year.

I’m just saying why would the Championship reject Premiership Teams if it was on Championship Terms.As @Phil the Ace hinted that the Championship didn’t want them.The Sport is a shambles,obviously Sheffield and Ipswich situation made it even worse.Why did Louis throw in the towel.( what was the REAL reason).Not a word to the Ipswich supporters on the subject is pretty poor all round.Sheffield is just as bad trying to play call my bluff with the sport.

 

Maybe 2 certain team threw their toys outta the pram because they wanted a Premier league! not including Sheffield in that.
