Nobody Posted April 20, 2021 Share Posted April 20, 2021 Leaves a really bad taste in the mouth the way they talk about "finding new ways to improve football in the future" like. Fuck off, you've shown your hand in what you think improving football is, all it is is just more guaranteed money for your already fat pockets.

They can't just threaten and bluff everyone and win at the end of the story. They have to be punished hard. Agree. Just what it looks like so far. They clearly had nothing set up to make this league actually work. Looks like one big rouse that everyone fell for. Hopefully not. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ameritoon Posted April 20, 2021 Share Posted April 20, 2021 I don't think it was a bluff, they got a massive JP Morgan loan from it and apparently signed non-binding contracts. I genuinely think it was just a clusterfuck because the people who really put it together are incompetent and are used to things just going right for them. Whether they win or not remains to be seen, but they definitely lost today. It's embarrassing for all involved and the PL and UEFA now have a remit to fix things for everyone, not just those clubs, because the threat of a breakaway league is pointless for now. I know neither will do it, but they're more powerful than ever. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

They called everyone's bluff and uefa and likely the leagues have folded and given them more money and power. Whole thing was set up as a smokescreen to get what they wanted. What got voted through by UEFA was going through anyway and would have without them being cunts. I guess it’s a useful trial exercise for themselves but you’d have to imagine everyone else’s guard will be up now so that might not even be a benefit.

I'd say they've less leverage now than if they'd left something as a rumour and possibility, they've shot their shot to a large extent. Now it'll be "what are you going to do, start a Super League ?"
