Keegans Export Posted November 23, 2022 Share Posted November 23, 2022 I thought they'd changed it so that an extra place goes to the countries with the best coefficient - essentially England and Spain Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, I'm sure it was changed so effectively England and Spain (as things stand) would have 5 teams in the CL and it would be top 5 of the league Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

huss9 Posted November 24, 2022 Share Posted November 24, 2022 at leasty lineker has come out and apologised for not taking the same level of interest and regrets not raising the same concnerns before Russia 2018. and they invaded a sovereign country for no reason ffs. some interesting comments also from andros townsend with regards to sharia law and the pressure his muslim colleagues/friends get put under to openly support LGBT issues. he's quite understanding and comes across well. its not black and white. i come from a muslim family and my younger brother though not homophobic would be devatssated if one of his sons were gay - go figure. i'm so glad i left it all (religion) behind. can raise my kids as without the fear of hellfire.

gjohnson Posted November 24, 2022 Share Posted November 24, 2022 18 hours ago, Whitley mag said: A combination of no guaranteed CL income due to increased competition and the yanks not getting there way over Super League have led to this. Let’s hope American venture capitalists secure the purchase of both clubs and they suffer many barren years in the future. Don't see why anyone would want to spend £5bn on a football club if they want to make money from it....even the projected Super league money would take decades to recover the buying price without any investment in the team at all. Don't understand why the Glazers would want to sell as they get money out all the time and Man U still generate a lot of it. Are they getting greedy or just can't be bothered with the hassle given that they are no longer top 1 or 2 challengers? We were pretty darn cheap to buy (on a billionaires scale) and if PIF wanted to sell us tomorrow, they could easily double their investment, but when you're talking billions, thats still peanuts Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whitley mag Posted November 24, 2022 Share Posted November 24, 2022 (edited) More from Saudi Sports Minister’s interview with BBC, this is the best part- Little more than 12 months since their takeover, Newcastle are third in the Premier League table and unbeaten in all competitions since 31 August. The Magpies have spent more than £200m on players since the takeover, breaking their transfer record to sign Swedish striker Alexander Isak in the summer. "They've done an excellent job," added Prince Abdulaziz. "They still have a long way to go - they've brought the right people on board. "I'm sure they have targets to win the league and the Champions League and so on because they strive for the best and always bring the best on board, so I think it's going to be a bright future for Newcastle."

Wandy Posted November 24, 2022 Share Posted November 24, 2022 I can’t see the Saudis getting involved with another big PL club. Unless they plan to simply takeover the whole league and call it the Saudi League. I actually think there is mileage in the Apple/Man U thing though. The NUFC takeover may have just heralded the new era of the PL….oil state elite clubs v giant corporation elite clubs. Man U owned by Apple, Dippers by Amazon, Arsenal by Google, then us and City powered by the oil. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
