The Super League | FA + PL: New Charter & Fines | UEFA: Settlement

[I'm Blue]

The Government don't give two shits about football or the fans.

Or people

Yes they dont give a shit, will soon move on.

Please don't post the names of posters who voted in favour of City joining the Super League. Please report anyone who does as this isn't the easiest thread to follow. Thanks.

why ? It is an open poll

 

[Blue Mist]

Cant believe some still dont realise this.

We are in bed with people now who tried to destroy us. It was not UEFA, it was Kroenke, Glazer etc. They just used UEFA for it.

These same people will regulate City to death in the new plastic league which will make basically City irrelevant on the global stage.

Which is why we dont have a board member in this new super shite league, the bastards will shit all over us.

6 fingered hillbillies, not for me

We used to reveal in what these charlatans had done and were doing to the rags.
Little did we know.

Munich were knocked out by PSG. More likely, PSG would get a bye to the final and Dortmund and Porto would play-off to meet them in the final.

If this happened I genuinely wouldn‘t know whether to laugh or cry.

I thought that when I typed it : )
They won’t be able to throw things while holding our hand though.

They will only be holding our hand so they can throw us under the bus!! ;)

Is it fashionable to say bad things about government all the time?

Prince wills is on the fans side

of course we were - 300 million in additional funds, with a duty to shareholders and investors this made it pretty much a certainty from that point of view

not being part of this from the start risks not having the founder members rights - these will be invaluable
I would still expect some of the clubs to try and award themselves more rights - City's legal team better be all over this otherwise we will be done over - we might have fucked ourselves as you mention but there is logic (flawed) behind it

while I understand why the club felt like they had to do it, it's wrong and they have lost a lot of fans and respect over this - at the end of the day that's the main issue - none of these clubs cares about fans or respect, they only care about money

It is wrong at every level and it is plain that it will be blocked at all levels. Indeed as the UK is no longer subject to EU competition law the UK can totally kill off the 6 English clubs involvement by punitive regulations and financial penalties.
I'm rather hoping our chairman has a cunning plan to shaft the other 5 clubs and UEFA all at the same time but I think this is wishful thinking on my part.

 

[SWPISHOME]

I couldn't give a fuck what any of them think.

I'm stunned any of them stuck with us when we were shit (if any of them were around at that time).

Remember those days? Remember when we used to dream that maybe, just maybe one day we could turn the corner and become a successful club.

I do, and that's what kept us going through those times.

What City have done now is effectively removed that hope from millions of fans around the country. It's a cunts trick and anyone even remotely thinking this is a good thing is a **** too.

Top post.

who gives a shit what the government thinks, it's what football thinks and we have fuck%% our own beautiful game ourselves, shameful

 

[CityForever45]

This is how it works in US sports — if the local market rejects the product you declare the market impossible and move to a different city. Usually you get 3 or 4 cities in competition and you force them to give you sweetheart deals to come

I can see these Super League guys in 10-15 years thinking :" Do we really need 2 teams in Manchester ? Or 3 in London ?" Then they will move teams around the world.

Has anyone in the thread suggested it’s a “good thing”, because it seems like you keep building that strawman to argue against.

What about Harry?

 

[its grim up north]

Could work. Porto, Bayern and Dortmund. But make sure Bayern and PSG are kept apart so there is no repeat of

Ahhh now we know what game Munich are playing. Reinstated, win it, announce they’re joining the super league an hour after they get the trophy.. wouldn’t put anything past those German rag snakes

But PSG didn't sign so Bayern out

I’m a posh ****. I like a preserve.

Like formaldehyde?

 

[onceabluealways]

What’s crazy is any extra money earned will end up in players pockets, Harland already been mentioned 1mill/week

 

[FogBlueInSanFran]

Money is an issue but closed competitions, that's the piss take.

Remember dreaming when we played Gillingham, the start of our return back to the big time? That dream is now over if this is allowed to happen, clubs like Everton, Newcastle, Villa, it's over for them.

Agreed. It's promotion/relegation that's the sticking point with so many I think . . . and some survivor's guilt among City fans.
