Well relegation isn't really an option for the Celtic league. If they want a compromise over the number of teams then get rid of the playoff and give the Italians 3 places, there should be at least 1 Welsh, Scottish and Irish team in the Challenge Cup.

If the Welsh go to 3 Franchises then a playoff between the top French and English side who fail to make the HEC on their league position would also appease them.

After such a week-end of Rugby, congratulations to Leinster and Munster, I stick to my proposal: 16 or 32 clubs/provinces play a cup with one-match direct elimination.
