no he is not. Football isnt in crisis with massive debts, some clubs are, and a majority are fine cos they are inteligently financed for years.He's being honest. Football is in crisis with massive debts. So you use your power to screw the other clubs and then its up to regulators / government to decide if they wish to accept the new set up.
The fair solution is that if Barcelona have a debt mountain then they suffer as happened to Leeds, and then they come back in due course. But I am pretty sure that this has all been accelerated by the financial situation of clubs. Spurs and Man Utd have major structural problems. This is a way out.
The three Americans are the spearheads of this, they know how franchises work they are cosying up to one another and got each others backs, because they know together they can line their pockets for billions each. perez and barca are completely desperate for money, they'll go along with anything, giving perez the chairman role to make them feel important was a masterstroke. the Italian league has been in decline for 2 decades, this money enables those 3 to reestablish themselves as the dominant trio in Italy, that's their prize in this and they'll do what's needed to keep that advantage. Spurs are the hangers on just glad of the invite.No they won't, they won't be able to. That's the whole point of this abomination of a league.
We're just a shit man utd.We have been played like a fiddle by united, liverpool and the spanish clubs. Absolutely played like a fiddle.
we have just voted to remove our position as one of the most powerful clubs in the uk, with a future that only contains good news, and instead voted to make ourselves literally subservient to United, Liverpool, Arsenal, Juventus and Madrid.
We’ve gone from winning 50% of the next 8 or 10 titles as well as god knows how many domestic cups to finishing mid table at best in this new league as there is no way the clubs that have been trying to cripple us for 10 years will suddenly now treat us as equals.
Played like a fiddle.
And the worst thing is, we weren’t just out manoeuvred - we bloody voted for it.
Voted to give our 5 biggest enemies in world football literal control over us.
How can ANY blue be anything other than 100% opposed to this?
Agreed about rather being under UEFA, surely they know what will happen if they should try to shaft us again.City are under them. Glazers, Henry, Perez are all executive members of this new league. No City representation.
This is insanity and id be under UEFA all day long.
Don't ever, ever use that phrase again ...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
Excuse me what!
14 votes required for any PL changes 20 - 6 does itNo it doesn’t. They won’t kick anyone out, they don’t even have enough clubs to do so if my maths is right. Ever consider why 6 teams, not 4 or 5. Why Super
League gave Arsenal a seat at the table despite them not being deserving of one?
Well, he's not going to be bothered about not being at the World Cup is he?My question is how will transfers work? If this truly goes ahead, will it attract the likes of haaland or repel him.
City have put a statement on the website tonight
To me it reads like we’re in !
Outrageous lack of understanding about what we are all about.I don’t want to read the words “Vice President Joel Glazer” on our website ever again and if the person who ok’d that is still in a job, they need sacking pronto!

Do you have the proof. Everything I read says 75% required so that’s 15.14 votes required for any PL changes 20 - 6 does it
but isnt it absurd to talk about "fans" when he says they dont like football. if they re fans, they do like football. His definition of fan is "potential american customer"Did he ask them personally?
