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

[malg]

I can’t watch these 2 cunts on sly telling the world how unfair competition is now and they are united as 1. Disingenuous cretins.

listening to them bleat on about both their clubs and their glorious past is vomit inducing. I am changing my vote to yes just so I don’t have to listen to these wankers in the future.

United and Liverpool have ruined football not the super league.

Thank fuck someone else sees it.

Exactly what it is. Carra admitted it earlier stating they had meetings with people at sky this afternoon. Sky are driving the narrative. Same way they do with everything. The aguero elbow anyone. Going on about it enough inevitably changes minds. They will suffer financially as a result and have the most to lose

Of course they had a production meeting this afternoon, prior to hosting a 4-hour live show in the evening. They don't just turn up 5 mins before the show starts and blag their way through it.

City's at The Big Table now.

As a matter of interest if we leave the Premier League where do we go ? Championship, Divsion 1 ?

You cant run a football franchise (see what I did) playing 20 games a season.

They could make it into a league format, playing each team twice, so 38 games. That's where it is ultimately heading IMO.

 

[1.618034]

yes he did lol

FFS!

So because they work for Sky - they’re not allowed to disapprove of this proposal ?

You think these two actually want this Super League ? Which would pretty make them the only people who do.

the truth is, they have lived there whole lives in football, they’re passionately involved and just like everyone on here - they don’t want it ruined.

They're doing it whilst behind a paywall and whilst taking SKY's money.

I’m surprised at the silence from within City more so that someone hasn’t broke ranks and spoke out over this,as for pep and his pre match media conference tomorrow be interesting to hear what he has to say,but considering his long friendship with the other two Spaniards I’ve a feeling he will have been privy to all this ..

 

[WEMBLEY76]

Would be useful if KAM came out with a statement on the official website explaining in more detail City’s reasoning behind joining up to this new league.

Aston Villa, Leeds, Sheffield United, West Brom, Fulham, Brighton, Burnley, Newcastle and Wolves have all been in the championship in the last 5 years. Add the 6 promoted sides and you've got 15

Which is 3/4s.

It is a championship level division without the Top 6.

Five years yeah, and every club has been at one stage. They have changed a lot since... Managers, squads, income, attendance. All of it makes a difference when it comes to the TV rights.

Of last year's clubs it would be six, and those are the only ones that can be claimed to be near championship level (Norwich for one are already above it before promotion)

Florentino Perez will be speaking on El Chiringuito TV in 10 mins about the ESL. So there should be some more infuriating quotes to read before bed.

Looking forward to seeing how out of touch they are.
Anything other than backtracking on the "closed shop" format is suicidal at this point, and they would be better off keeping their gobs shut

 

[Tricky_Trev]

Is this on Sky Q mate?

Haha. You’ll have to keep an eye on Twitter for the translated quotes.

 

[MCFC1993]

The government will be paid off for this.

It's been said for years, I'm a season ticket holder and pay £700 a season. Nothing more, nothing less. If they can replace me with 10 tourists over 10 games who pay £50 a ticket for themselves, bring a friend and then visit the city store it's clear who is more beneficial to them.

This time it's different though, we can't think like that, with this concept and no Premier league football we'd no longer have Manchester City Football Club.

Eventually there is a point when we can stand up for ourselves, this is it.

Give that man an applause. Whole heartedly agree. I don't want this bollocks either but Man U and Lpool made it a closed shop long before the Super League came along.

We would have to apply to The FA to be reinstated and we would be put in the 5th teir of English football if accepted. The National League

I wonder how KDB and Foden would feel about playing Morecambe and Stockport County (if they are in that league)

 

[BlueHammer85]

Are you genuinely this naive?

I guess so.

Has this thread exceeded the most pages in the shortest time record?

Whatever it was/is

We don't go anywhere we will be bannedfrom English football and quite right too.

 

[Manchester_lalala]

Klopp can also fuck off regarding him saying he doesn’t talk about other clubs. Around a year ago he was saying it was a bad day for football when we won our appeal. The guy is a proper bell end. I actually can’t stand football at the minute. We’ve got ourselves into a right mess and I can’t see it ending well. Being kicked out the champions league and the prem would prove a point to our owners but for us, it would crush us. We haven’t asked for this. I’m not deflecting the blame away from Khaldoon, but I always knew that the American owners would somehow kill our game as we know it.

 

[denislawsbackheel]

I’ve read hundreds of pages of this thread today and there’s still something I just can’t get my head around.
15 founders that never get relegated but 5 that can right?
So, they get 5 teams to make up the 20 (let’s imagine they’ve got their 15), who potentially cause a shit storm with threatened sanctions from their own leagues on leaving and put themselves at risk of relegation if they don’t perform?
Will their respective leagues welcome them back with open arms like long lost sons whilst preparing to wave off the next lamb to the slaughter?
Who willingly signs up for this in their right mind?
This is potentially every 1st tier league in Europe held to ransom by welcoming back the failures at one time or another!
Am I missing something?

Nope

 

[Nicholas van Whatsisface]

Are you for real?

Absolutely!

All I see is a choice between two self-serving, protectionist, morally bankrupt stitch ups cooked up by a bunch of detestable crooks on both sides, neither of which we should be willing to trust - and neither of which somehow has the interests of the National Leagues or ‘football’s soul’ included in its thinking.

So yes - I’m absolutely for real. I’d love someone to explain why some protectionist shit show dreamed up by Bayern, PSG and the crooks at UEFA who have been trying to fuck my club for the last 5 decade is somehow the noble, righteous, morally upstanding route through all this.
