That's a totally different topic. There's no reason why we couldn't compete in that league with those teams.But we wont be pushing forward. We will be also rans whilst Barca, Real, Juve, Inter dominate.
This is new FFP. There will be spending cap too.
Was countdown on?He couldn't get off quick enough!
We are complicit - we don't get a free pass...........I can believe that. For City and Chelsea, as much as they maybe disagreed with this, the potential ramifications of not joining could be relatively catastrophic if it were to backfire. It's all well and good having principles but saying no to this could have destroyed years of hard work by both clubs.
I feel both clubs lost out to a power play here, in the same way UEFA are about to with all of this.
Perez, Agnelli, and the US owners we have to thank for this motion.
You might not. I'll still go to PL games.
This.If we are in it we’re also rans almost immediately. They’ll have their own version of ffp to well and truly fuck us over
Explain Leicester then. Win the league, get into the CL. A few seasons later in the running for CL qualification. All that wiped out. Will they get a super duper league invite for finishing 3rd? Will they fuck.I specifically said, we've been a constant in there for the last ten years - because we were bankrolled into it. That's us being in our closed shop in that competition, like Real, Barca etc. Not a one off like Everton.
And my point for your highlighted bit is that I dreamed of being involved in the CL when we were shit. Now we've been in it for a decade and will now, if this happens, push on with the other elite clubs to a new competition. I won't slate that when I dreamed of just one season, when the person who has spent our way to a decade in the competition I dreamt about being in.

Plenty of reasons: old boys get the most money already reported that Real gets the biggest slice.That's a totally different topic. There's no reason why we couldn't compete in that league with those teams.
Dead in the water. Any football fan on that board would have known the depth of hostility this plan would create. It stinks. Stan Kroenke, Glazers, Soriano, Henry. These are financiers. They don't understand football and our values.Been working all day, so not had chance to read too much of this thread. Not happy at all that City have committed to the ESL, it stinks of greed, money and unfortunately this is the way that football is going now.
It seems none of the clubs involved including City gives two shits about the fans in all this which is really sad. I personally can't see this going ahead with all the opposition, but it leaves a very bad taste in the mouth.
Arsenal?We wouldn't be invited if we were a mid table club, so that is s dead argument. We are invited because we've just spent our way to a decade of success, something our fans get very precious about when accused of it. Yet now, as a result of that success our owner, who spent that money, wants to push us forward we have a load of fans spitting their dummies out and crying foul.
THAT is hypocrisy.
Part of me wishes I could go back in time when he was chairman and re-live it all over again.It was good to see on NWTonight on the BBC that it was rags and bin dippers owners getting most of the blame! The did interview Bernstein as well who is totally against it but we didn’t get slated.

They got there by buying cheap and selling high. Not really any point is there if all that hard work means no Euro prize.
to be honest what do you expect them to say ? its the clubs and owners that should be talking to the press'Man Of The People' Klopp, there, not saying a fucking word.
