Stifler Posted October 14, 2020 Share Posted October 14, 2020 If I’m one of the 14 other Premier League clubs I’d be asking why we should bail out the EFL now when they were quite happy to go behind our back and sell us out. They weren’t even getting anything for doing so, they were just getting an advance on their income and would ultimately put themselves in a bad position when further down the line those big clubs decided they no longer wanted to share any money with them. I’d also be looking at the EFL themselves asking what the fuck they have done to help themselves. For too long now they have been overspending without any inclination to stop it. They have seen clubs go bust, other clubs in secrete financial disaster, they even had to be bailed out years ago when the ITV deal collapsed. They have learnt nothing and have been far too happy to plead poverty and out the begging bowl out. It would be easier to help them out if you though that it would result in some reform, but it won’t. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jdckelly Posted October 14, 2020 Share Posted October 14, 2020 at least somethings been done for L1/2, sure its (interest free) loans and advancing income but needs must given the situation, hard to worry about next year when things are on fire now Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kimbo Posted October 14, 2020 Share Posted October 14, 2020 They rejected their own proposal? It's like getting into a fight and punching yourself in the face before the other person gets a chance to do it to you. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dokko Posted October 14, 2020 Share Posted October 14, 2020 Well what was the fucking point of that. Mind, Manure, the self obsessed scouse cunts and Rick parry coming off like utter corrupt arseholes isn't a bad thing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miggys First Goal Posted October 14, 2020 Share Posted October 14, 2020 Can't let this be swept under the carpet like. Liverpool and Manure have shown themselves to be abhorrent corrupt scumbags through all of this. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tsunami Posted October 14, 2020 Share Posted October 14, 2020 They’ll just come back with another shit self benefitting proposal that isn’t quite as bad and hope to bargain that down so that they get what they want. The other clubs should try and use this as a way to introduce protection and penalties against this secretive, power grabbing, opportunist behaviour happening again. The top clubs have shown their hand; it’ll not go away. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The top clubs have shown their hand; it’ll not go away. I reckon the other clubs have said we have the power to outvote you and out you in a worse situation unless you keep yourselves in check. They have possibly even threatened with more severe consequences, hence why even Liverpool and Man Utd haven’t even voted for the proposals. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheInfiniteOdyssey Posted October 14, 2020 Share Posted October 14, 2020 Superb stuff from the John Henry and Glazer to not even bother to turn up to the vote, instead sending their minions in their place. How strange, that despite being so passionate about the proposal and the English football pyramid, their public stance can't be put forward Such figures can clearly to be trusted with greater power over the game Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

At the end of the day they need the votes of the other 14 to get any traction on any of their own ideas. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kimbo Posted October 14, 2020 Share Posted October 14, 2020 I think they will hope the threat to leave will force some watered down changes, then more watered down changes later on, then more, until they get everything they want. Then when they have maxed their growth potential within the premier league it will be time for the European super league, though I’m not sure all 6 of them will get into it. I don’t think all this coming out was planned, I get the impression the rest of the big 5 and Spurs didn’t want it to come out. The cards are all on the table now though.

Jinky Jim Posted October 14, 2020 Share Posted October 14, 2020 Has anyone been on RAWK since the announcement from the Premier League...unbelievable...their arrogance is staggering......just a short example of some of the stuff put up....” Quite bizarre that the 'smaller clubs' love attacking Liverpool and Utd, whom without them wouldnt exist in their current form” Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
