As seen with the T20 fiasco the powers want to dismantle the current set up . There are some rumblings amongst the counties as they have twigged that what happens in the short forms will eventually cross over into the extended version.
Glamorgan are likely to miss out on a T20 slot with my guess that there will be a West franchise with Sophia Gardens maybe getting the odd game.
Once this franchise set up is up and running I have little doubt the Royal London competition will follow before the County Championship gets the same treatment .
Glamorgan don't make an attractive proposition on more than one front and if they are competing for one slot with say Somerset & Gloucestershire then I don't fancy their chances.
The writing is on the wall for more than one county and the eagerness to snatch at the money being offered for the t20 is seen as a lifeline but it may well turn out to be a poisoned chalice.
