Well I didn't know for sure but I knew we'd broken records with that game domestically.

As I said in my edit, that feels like a dig at City. So why would he do that if City are fully on board?
Because he is complete idiot.

This is all about saving Real Madrid financially. He complained how Real had lost 400m and something had to be done.
 
It has probably been going on all season bud. The agreement was signed last Saturday. I would guess they wanted to drop the super league bomb before uefa reforms came out.

Uefa were against us before we joined so nothing new here. I hope we don’t get distracted and let the rags in. Must win on Wednesday.
Doesn't sound like there'll be much celebrating going on if we indeed do manage to wrap up the league.
Just give Ferny the trophy in the after match interview and disappear up the tunnel?
 
Depends where the "organisation" is based, it won't be in the UK, so our high court will have no jurisdiction.
It's a legal case all this and watertight.
We don't know ESL contract details,
but CAS could be the answer and 23 years of compensation payments might not be what we are happy to pay.

It looks as if we want to be part of exactly this.

Sadly, this decision wasn't even made in Manchester, where this club has been founded, but somewhere between Abu Dhabi, China and Los Angeles.
 
This thread grows too fast for me to keep up, so sorry if that has already been asked.

Couldn't the players just protest and refuse to play?

I don't know the legality of it, but perhaps the clubs sue the players that do, that will probably last some time while the club plays with no players, damaging them much even more.

Furthermore, the players may potentially be able to counter-sue for the clubs changing the terms of their contracts (Not a lawyer, but playing one in this statement).

Don't know the ins-and-outs of this, but perhaps somebody with more knowledge can chime in.

Go on El Chringuito TV’s Twitter account. Videos on there. In Spanish though, but should satisfy you that it’s real! That’s the alarming thing though, I don’t blame you for thinking it’s fake... I mean just look at what he’s said! Only it’s all too real.
 
Utter shambles. We could have been watching this and laughing our heads off.

They have no plan of any worth and we signed up? The Sheik agreed....TO THIS?

In 30 years in the private sector I've been involved in a number of product launches. I've seen some crackers but I've witnessed some fucking stinkers, but in all my years I've never seen a product launch stinkier than this.

This thing is dead on arrival.

The elephant in the room is players salaries. Out of control and unchecked. No one wants to address the obvious problem as to why a super league is necessary for the debt clubs to reclaim lost profits.

Oh no this can’t be happening.
 
They are so over the top, you’d have to think they are false.
Surely he couldn’t be that thick to post these incendiary tweets, even if it’s what he thinks.
I remember the trump led nfl alternative super league thing that canned in the 90s and this has that kind of blueprint.
 
That sounds like a direct quote from Joel effin Glazier!
Self serving and selfish, which is exactly what the rest of the football community is calling us and the rest of this band of idiots!

I agree it is self serving and it is selfish.

It's been heading this way for two decades, even longer. If this is a surprise to people then they haven't been paying attention.

Fans couldn't stop domestic clubs no longer splitting their gate receipts, we couldn't stop the creation of the Premier League, we couldn't stop the change from the European Cup to the Champions League, nor it's stupid coefficient and seeding system, nor could we stop FFP and we can't stop this.

The football community can go jump, it played it's part in this by happy clapping along with the above, they bought the lies peddled about City and FFP and supported their clubs voting for it.

I said I don't like it, but I could see where it was heading long ago.
 

What an arrogant self inflated prick.

He honestly thinks there is no interest in football outside of Spain.

I swear we have been railroaded in to this shit by the Spanish connections with Barcelona at our Club.

Out of all 6 Clubs we shouldn't have touched this project with a Mile long shitty stick.

Had we made a stand it would have cemented our status further with neutrals in the UK.

I honestly feel like we have committed corporate suicide.

Not only have we tarnished the brand,we become a Rag clone Club in a Super League where we will be treated like we should be forever grateful.

Wtf was we thinking.
