Yorkie Posted April 18, 2021 Share Posted April 18, 2021 I feel a bit like Charlton Heston screaming at a giant statue of Masters/Scudamore/the rest of 'em tonight. This has been coming for the past 20 years. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

An earlier tweet said all 12 teams had left ECA. So yes. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

r0cafella Posted April 18, 2021 Share Posted April 18, 2021 Just now, Wullie said: I think they probably think that players are as greedy as they are. But I don't think they're right, not that players aren't keen to get their hands on a few quid, but that so many of them will be interested in hitching their careers to a perennial friendly tournament, most of them playing for nothing. This thing has no jeopardy at all. I’ll be interested to see what happens too. It also depends on the nature of the contracts the clubs have in place. We can be certain that these talks have been going on for years so it depends on how prepared these clubs have been. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shak Posted April 18, 2021 Share Posted April 18, 2021 1 minute ago, Miggys First Goal said: £1 million a week wages or play for your country. What you going to choose? Right? People are deluded thinking players are gonna take a stand here. Other than a few conscientious objectors, maybe. This is their job, they aren't going to view it the same way we do. Will they like it? Probably not. But long term they're probably gonna be earning a lot more money for playing in fewer games. They'll come around.

This all frees the cartel from the rules laid down by Uefa so I expect games to be played at Asian friendly timings to increase the commercial reach. Remember this is business, JP Morgan have to make this huge expenditure into a profit. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
