I like the idea.
It would give conference clubs better access to promotion and bring more fans through the gates.
It also gives Stanley a financial safety net should they ever get relegates as it will take a good few years for the 10 premier league B teams to get promoted (rumoured to be 3 up, as opposed to the conference which is only 2 up).

I hope it goes ahead.

BTW, Smudgie, I think you have got it wrong.
It will be a 20 team league called league 3 made up of 10 B teams and the top 10 conference teams from the year prior to the league starting.
All have an equal chance of promotion or relegation up the league system with the B teams promotion capped at championship level.
The conference will continue albeit it will now be the 6th tier of English football.
