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

[Nicholas van Whatsisface]

Yes he did, he came out against it before the Leeds game. Hate pool if you like but Klopp is now on record opposing it.

Must have missed that, as all I saw was his fudge of a press conference earlier.

Fair play to him if true - takes balls to go against your employer like that!

This is just desperate fan fiction. The FA has no power over the Premier League and frankly from previous conflicts like project breakaway, there's nothing more likely to get PL teams to vote against something than the FA trying to force them to vote for something.

Fan fiction you can be such an arrogant knob at times. The pl will do as its told by uefa or face the Consequences. This is a war and uefa are desperate, I doubt anything would be off the table.

It's not a bluff, and of course the leagues will cave and slurp up the solidarity payments.

And eventually the Super League clubs will wonder why there are any solidarity payments at all, and why that 300MM or whatever isn't going to the members of the Super League. And why they spend 90 minutes playing Burnley instead of 90 mins playing Real Madrid -- again -- for more money, prestige, viewers, etc.

And so then they'll leave the domestic leagues. Because what will they need them for? Nothing. Literally nothing. And the solidarity payments will disappear. As will the leagues as we know them.

The solidarity payments are hush payments for current non-elite club owners, and what's left will ultimately be spent on the rope the leagues will use to hang themselves.

You keep literally making stuff up.

Peter Swales will be turning in his grave

Haha, has he ever stopped?

 

[kupest]

This is all just BS news. Don't think even Madrid give a fuck about that. Someone just trying to mind followers off of this.

We get battered left right and centre by everyone and we have the opportunity to do the right thing and they’ve sold their soul for more profits.

Anybody ever tell you not to go drinking on an empty head?
Calling our owner and the club hierarchy cunts, without being in full receipt of any facts whatsoever is in itself, dare I say, cuntish.
And no, nobody from the club spat on your fathers grave yesterday (your earlier post). Stop being so fucking melodramatic, give your head a wobble and go for a lie down.

So the other 11 owners are shit for this but ours are innocent?

With Tuesday-Wednesday evening matches kicking off at say 3:00 am in Singapore?

In the long run I doubt super league games will stay as evening kick offs only. Midday UK is a 8pm ko in Singapore.

Im desperate to win the league still. I imagine pep and the players are the same.

horrible situation thats couldnt have come at a worse time. Undermines our whole season.

It doesn't undermine our season.

Thats probably true, but this is where the negotiations come in.

The Super League has said they'll scale solidarity money with revenue growth, so this is where the PL clubs need to say, "well you've all committed to 23 years of this, now we are going to need you to legally commit to our slice, and failure to provide that will result in your expulsion".

Theres so much further to go here and a lot of potential for the super league to make this appetising enough for people to swallow.

They want the CL to still run alongside their competition for example - if winning the CL got you a 5 year membership of the super league, wouldn't that completely undercut most of the objections about "taking away the dream?"

They have announced basically their bottom line - security for 15 founding clubs, more games, taking control of the organisation away from UEFA. Everything else is negotiable.

No, but they're not cünts either which is what that poster called them.

 

[Mancityus]

It has to be, it would be madness to cause this much bad feeling only for it to fail.

Bigger plans than this have failed so just because someone planned something big does not mean it will succeed

 

[kaz7]

He was against it 2 years ago.

He waffled on tonite but essentially said nothing

 

[M18CTID]

Can we transfer the Thomas Cook Trophy over? And the Isle Of Man 1994 Tournament Runners Up trophy? The one where Oldham dicked us in the final?

 

[Akiva]

Nottingham Forest two times Super League winners.

What a fucking joke.

Where did I say that???

Yes winning the league could go down in history as the last team which won PL before it changed to something else.

[theres only one carlito]

This is basically What the PDC and Phil Taylor did too darts and the BDO, the top players took over their own rights and career after realising they could make more money than the BDO was creating.
Players who defected (16 top professionals) were banned from BDO tournaments, The BDO went bump last year after 50 years of managing the top rank Darts tournaments.
UEFA are in the same boat here, I think it’s the beginning of the end for UEFA, FIFA will be the governing Body like WDF is for darts. UEFA will be consigned to the bin.

can’t say I’m arsed, UEFA have tried for years too get us thrown out, too appease the cartel. Now The cartel have turned on them and asked us too join instead. Abs we’ve agreed.
Keep your friends close, your enemies closer. ;-)
