Boss of the League Managers Association, Richard Bevan, revealed on Monday that some clubs were talking about the prospect of scrapping promotion and relegation from the Premier League.
Premier League rules state that 14 votes from their 20 members are needed to make changes, but the FA have the power to veto any proposal which alters the game’s structure.
“The FA’s share can be used so it has to approve any major rule change,” an FA spokesman told The Sun.
“This covers changes to promotion and relegation.”
