nufcjb Posted April 19, 2021 Share Posted April 19, 2021 One of Neville's tweet nailed it on its head. The nerve of this lot sharing €3bn among themselves and then turning up on Saturdays for a kickabout. That's the point really. They have their own party and their own cash, yet they aren't willing to let go of what they currently get too. The absolute greed. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth Crooks Posted April 19, 2021 Share Posted April 19, 2021 Just now, TaylorJ_01 said: Most of the teams involved aren't even in the top positions of their respective leagues, or have been crap for ages. AC Milan ffs their last 7 season finishes are 6th, 5th, 6th, 6th, 7th, 10th, 8th. Arsenal are a shell of their former self, Tottenham are still really a mid-table team. This is no super league. Owners and sponsors have become too powerful. Power needs to be taken back by the fans. Over and over, decisions have been made that negatively affect the game and enough is enough. These teams think they have a right to receive a certain level of oncome without earning it, they can fuck off. or equally our situation and the bottom feeders after a quick buck. Sportswashing, Super League, PFM's, Jobs for the boys/know your place. It's fucking rotten and I hate it actually. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Real Madrid are, but they are "one man, one vote", Florentino being that man. Barça will probably put it to a membership vote next autumn. Everybody I know is against it, but I can see it the board passing it if they campaign strongly on "vote yes or we'll fold". Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ken Boon Posted April 19, 2021 Share Posted April 19, 2021 If they wanna f*ck off, let em go on condition that they are forced to resign from the FA and Premier League. I sure as f* ck wont be watching no European Super League ("elite wankers" give me an excuse to post this ?) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Their super league would be a white elephant without the backbone of the Premier league, that's why. None of these top 6 will have the balls to break away if the PL threaten to kick them out. Just depends if the PL can hold their nerve. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anderson Posted April 19, 2021 Share Posted April 19, 2021 Really hope they dish out bans to UEFA competitions at least, & not only just if they choose to push on with it. Not confident mind. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyeDubbleYoo Posted April 19, 2021 Share Posted April 19, 2021 I want the leagues to expel the teams, but they'd be murdering their own product at the same time. Can't see it. The extra money from the super league would give the 6 teams a massive advantage at home as well. Especially since they're in it permanently. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shays Given Tim Flowers Posted April 19, 2021 Share Posted April 19, 2021 This just goes to show how problematic something like big picture would have been. Hopefully it strengthens the resolve of the custodians of the game to limit the power of clubs. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

GeordieDazzler Posted April 19, 2021 Share Posted April 19, 2021 Don't EPL rules mean that you need a 75% vote to remove them so as long as one doesn't break rank you'd struggle to kick them out. Hopefully Uefa boot them all out of their competitions and make the players ineligible for the Euros. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Potentially stupid idea not really thought through, but could the other 14 not vote to rejoin the football league and then stop promotion from the football league to the PL?

Consortium of one Posted April 19, 2021 Share Posted April 19, 2021 22 hours ago, triggs said: They're thinking of the worldwide market. What would the average American want to watch, Man City vs Burnley or Man City vs Real Madrid? Again, I'm not for it but I've probably watched 10 Premier League games this season, most of which involved Newcastle yet I watch most CL knockout games This American would rather watch Man City and Burnley. I think they are misreading their markets. Their breakaway league will be unsustainable. A parallel in American sport is the supposed p5 breakaway from the NCAA. Just like this its a short sighted money grab. Let JP Morgan underwrite it. I'll laugh when the US gov't refuses to bail them out when it fails.

The rights have bounced around because no one watches. Perhaps that supports their desire for change idk. But either way, 2pm Wednesday isn’t exactly prime time.
