Bang on this from an Arsenal fan ?

I can't help but think this is the perfect time for them to takeover. Not only concerning us with regarding our historic problems with Ashley, but after everything that's happened in the last few days, If these came in and instantly formed good relationships with fan groups and legends of the club, they would be seen as heroes. They have the finances to secure our safety for the future, but if they came in and did everything on board regarding the fans, that would be absolutely massive for their reputation.

Same. Even my wife told me finally last night at around 11pm "the super league problems will still be there tomorrow, don't worry about it now" I asked her if she was an American football club owner.

Not much they can do though surely, if FIFA says they are banned from selection then they won't get picked. The risk would be disqualification for their own country I would think.

The value of the PL and the money coming into it would absolutely plummet. Thus leaving nothing for the grass roots and the lower leagues.

The rules say its possible though don't they? It's still one hell of a risk just to get what you want in the CL.

Simon Jordan rumbling on about how this is just a power play to get what they want with regards to the CL and it'll never actually happen. Even if that is the case, 1. That's a massive risk and 2. They're surely still punishable for the rules they've broken. They might get what they want in regards to the CL but why would it matter if that means you're kicked out of the league?

So much greed. Not even proposing it to relevant fan groups or saying how the money would filter down to grass roots football. Just keeping it all for themselves. Wow.

PIF wanted to turn us into a superhouse. Eventually making big name signings and competing at the top of European football. If this league goes ahead none of that will happen.

So they'll be playing just 1 midweek game every week with no international games for players?

Oh fuck. I thought they released a statement earlier supporting it! Just proves I know fuck all about them

Same. Never heard of them before tonight and they've just destroyed football for me for the first time in the 38 years I've been alive.

Get the popcorn ready

The only place I've seen mention a 10.30 announcement is that un-official Madrid twitter account and they quote the BBC, however I can't find any mention of it via BBC ?

I can see it now "sky sports super football on super Saturday showing super league in full super HD... And its live!" (Sign up for £150 per month minimum 36 month contract)

Some of them for sure, but there's no way that league is going to be rammed with the Worlds best talent, I'd say there is more players who want International reputation and trophies, while still becoming millionaires, then there is players who just want money money money.

Fuck the clubs, but surely no top player would want to be a part of this? Banned from playing in the World Cup and would rather play Arsenal and Spurs? ?

Is this lad injured? Hasn't featured since Wolves has he?

So any ideas about this 9.30pm announcement? Surely the PL has to take action against the clubs named even if it ends up falling on its arse? Will it even be confirmed it's going ahead or could it be an announcement that its cancelled?

Has anything been said on the F365 forum lately? Did anything ever actually come true from there anyway?!

In what way will the takeover not be concluded? The club have officially stated that arbitration is the process.

Yeah but Bruce.

So strange that before he arrived here I was like who the fuck is this guy? Partridge shrug. Now he's one of our best players ? Either I'm really out of touch with football or our CM is really that bad.

Sunderland

Yeah agree, I just edited my post as it isn't the nationality that matters but the fact they are linked. It does seem strange given the timing that he's stepped down though. Fingers crossed its all coming together.
