They can push it all they want. I'll be buying a season ticket at Altrincham.

They'll have also calculated collateral damage (ie, me and thee).

I’m calling this out as bullshit, as a few of the clubs mentioned in the ESL mutiny, have COs on the ECA, Including the chairman!

[Sir peace frog]

You see it’s all well and good to attack Uncle Malc but not expand on what led to it.

 

[lancs blue]

They're trying to work out how they can back out of this mess.

Death of ambition despite spending billion in the last 6 years?

Why no one calls them out on wasting the money. Glazers have made it possible for them to win trophies.

I just hope that following on from the announcement Uefa and the PL just put out a statement saying they are sorry to hear of this development but respect the clubs decisions, as such we await their letters of resignation from the EPL as from the end of the season.

They attacked it whenever they lost a few games. They forgot about it when they won trophies, spent money like drunken sailors or when they bought tickets to fill the swamp.

Allowed it to happen, does he mean Gill and Slur Alex?

 

[Damanino]

lol despite how much was Uefa was hated during our FFP fight, quite a lot of supporters for them now.

 

[itsnevereasy]

Ok so yes it is greed on the part of any club who wants in on this. However the outrage from the PL etc about a possible breakaway league is a bit of the pot calling the kettle black given the the PL was a breakaway league that benefited certain clubs - well club…..

You still haven’t expanded on why you voted for this?

The clubs assume their drawing power as global entities with global fan bases will result in high broadcast revenue. Agree with others that the owners couldn’t care less about the local fans or match day gates. Local rivalries will diminish in importance over time — the Manchester derby would be replaced as “important” by, say, Barca/Juve if those were the league’s two best sides for several years. So the only power the current fan base has is to vote with their feet and eyes. But the owners are counting on fans in Delhi or New York to keep watching, and new fans to be generated. The American owners in this case also sniff weakness in American baseball and American football (due to real potential challenges ahead related to concussions — American football is “a sport all the mothers in America could shut down in 24 hours if they wanted to” someone once said). They see more kids playing low contact, high energy soccer — and they want to catch that wave before the MLS has any strength/power. There are multitudes of reasons why American owners LOVE this idea — none of them rely on what today’s local fans think.

Great Post.

The other thing I think we are missing out on is that this is the tip of the iceberg. The napster moment of football so to speak. These clubs are essentially throwing down a gauntlet to Fifa and UEFA and saying we can run football better than you.

We can make more money, with streaming platforms that we own, with games held in glamorous stadiums throughout the world, think like the grand prix, a round of fixtures in Singapore then Sydney etc. We can control agents, the days of Mino taking 20 million of a Pogba transfer fee and running roughshod over clubs will be gone. Wage cap and transfer fees may well follow. In terms of getting other clubs involved and expanding your money expect to see them open it up to new markets with famous clubs and large fanbases the likes of Boca, Santos etc.

Once you say fuck the game and the local fans how do I make the most money you can see there is untapped oceans of money that these owners are going for. That's before you even get into them making their own international tournaments like WC etc.

Yep. Norwich scarves along with protests only happen when they aren't doing so well. When everything is going good for them and winning something their is ever a peep out of them regarding the Glazers. Take January for example when they were top, The real rags were out in force then like we all know they are "in your face giddy bastards"...Nowt said about Glazers then.

The Glazers are taking money out of their shit club, But to have the audacity to moan about "not spending money"...Fuck me.

That’s a really strong statement from UEFA.

It is but it also shows them for the cunts they are.

Talking about fairness and togetherness yet happy to be cunts about FFP for a decade.

Utter shitbags.
