Exactly. That's why in sport you have the 1st division, the 2nd division (or whatever fancy names you give them) .... and so on and there's promotion and relegation between each division. Otherwise we might as well have completely different competitions because there is no longer a link.
As such I think the Championship should re brand itself as the Premiership (ignoring the existence of Super League, lol), get a TV deal with Channel 4 and a blue chip sponsor. Job done!
