I've got my doubts. What criteria do you think they would use for auto selection and invitational selection? And what team do you think would be on the list? It might even be open to some of the massive south american clubs. Plus a few inivational spots are bound to be taken up by clubs that the oragnisers have a vested interest in, not to mention some kind of local token gesture.
I don't really know, just read the bit in the Times, it seems it's to be played every two years and they plan to recruit 24 of the worlds top clubs, and mount a challenge to the Champions league. There's mention of air conditioned facilities, etc. They may initially throw it open to all clubs to apply and then select those that win their domestic leagues, similar to qualification to the CL. I think there was a mention of playing it in the summer??? can you imagine 40 + degrees in the desert?
Don't know if the idea will work but big money usually finds a way, anyway no harm to wake up the gnomes in FIFA, UEFA and the FA
