Bournemouth boss Jonathan Woodgate has railed against the prospect of Rangers and Celtic being parachuted into a British Super League.
And he's questioned whether the Scottish Premiership giants would beat his Championship hopefuls.
The age-old question of Scotland's big two in England was raised again on Thursday following a report disgruntled English sides want to reform their top-flight following the collapse of the European Super League.
Pundit Jamie O'Hara insists if Rangers and Celtic were to make the move they should go straight in at the top instead of working their way through the tiers.
But Cherries manager Woodgate is adamant that shouldn't happen.
He told talkSPORT: "I don't know that they can go straight in. How can they go straight in and leave the Championship out, when you've got all of us striving to get there?
"It wouldn't be fair at all, and if it does they would have to start in the Championship and climb up.
"We're Bournemouth and would Celtic and Rangers beat us? I'm not so sure."
The failed Super League was widely viewed as a cynical, greedy move to further entrench financial inequalities across the game.
It collapsed after founder clubs including Manchester United, Liverpool, Arsenal, Chelsea, Tottenham and Manchester City were forced into a humiliating climbdown fuelled by a furious backlash.
And Woodgate has questioned how a British equivalent would be any different.
He continued: "You are boiling it down to money again, like the Super League, and why does money have to run the game?
"Why does it have to boil down to television rights, and all this palaver about money, money, money.
"If they want to come into the league they have got to start off somewhere, and it can't be at the top."
