The Football League haven't adopted it so the relegated clubs won't need to both installing it.But why would it give them an advantage anyway? All the system seeks to do is make goalline decisions more accurate. There's no inherent advantage in that for any team.

I assume that Hawk-Eye will retain ownership of all the kit, so it'll just get moved to the new grounds
I'm not so sure. There's 7 clubs ever-present since inception, man city aren't going anywhere soon, fulham could be described as well-established, and newcastle should soon get their house in order, so that's 10. Added to which is the forthcoming increased revenue which, in all regrettable likelihood, will see the same small number of clubs yoyoing, so surely 20 rental and service agreements in perpetuity would generate more income?

Expensive to install, if you get relegated expensive to uninstall. Rental will probably be the way they do it.
Ive never understood the argument if Sunday league teams wont have the technology then why should premier league teams.
About bloody time. Cricket is a much better and fairer sport because of technology.Ive never understood the argument if Sunday league teams wont have the technology then why should premier league teams.

Had this argument with someone yesterday, he was insisting that football should be the same at all levels and it's the best sport in the World because it is the same for Premier League and Sunday League players.I pointed out that generally in Sunday League you get much worse referees and it's often the substitutes running the line, so it's nowhere near the same as Premier League.
