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

[Protein Junkie]

UEFA what a joke. This was coming the moment the CL was born to protect the old established elite.
Maybe they never thought the likes of us, PSG and others would upset the cozy gravy train.
This Super League is the bastard child of mother UEFA fathered by the old elite and ourselves.
Globalisation is the teat that will keep feeding.

 

[M18CTID]

This is definitely City.

Gut feeling Ric or have you heard something? Sorry to put you on the spot like!

 

[Eccles Blue]

Not surprised.

I’m guessing that apart from names of teams etc. that will be Pep’s take as well. I’d love him to come out with the things he has apparently said before about not wanting a Super League but this might not be the place for him to say that.




And now I’ve got to stop obsessing about our club selling us to the Americans and get off the Internet! I’ll probably come back to another hundred or so pages later. Have a good afternoon folks.

 

[Paulmcfc2703]

This is definitely City.

So essentially expect a video with Khaldoon and his dulcet tones saying 'we have joined this because unless UEFA change how they run things we feel like we have no choice.'

 

[Ric]

you know that or a hunch??

It tallies up with what I've been told about Zoom meetings at the club last night and this morning.

 

[Keeper!]

If we're considering pulling out then I'm sure we're talking to UEFA as well about this.

It would be wonderful if they let Pep announce it at the presser a little later

 

[mexico1970]

This is definitely City.

I hope you're right, you say definite are you positively definite mate or just a bit definitely positive?

 

[MeatHunterrr]

Look, did we give up on the squad and manager when we went down one goal to Dortmund?

Wait, I actually shouldn't have asked YOU that.

Good luck competing against clubs who generate hunderds of millions of more.

Look how its going for Aston Villa or Everton

Pep and squad (which would quickly look poor in comparison) are no miracle workers.

 

[BlueMoonz1977]

I hope its us....... but I aint getting my hopes up in case it turns out to be another of the prem clubs

 

[willipp]

And there we have it.

Some still lapping it up no doubt

Looking forward to finish 10th

We'd win the fucker and still receive half of what they do. Thats the whole point of this whole thing, ensure the same historic greedy clubs keep their big advantage and shaft anyone who dares compete.

 

[p.taker]

Money?

I was looking for we are the best club in England.

In-cred-ible

 

[The Colonel]

There’s plenty of football outside of this weird alliance. Let’s get out and never play the rags or scousers again. I’d be fine with that

I would pay good money to help it along, lets start a go fund me to make up the missing $ LOL

City have definitely held emergency meetings. Wouldn't surprise me if Chelsea had too though tbf.

 

[Cityzen_89]

Here's why I'm not convinced it's us:

I don't think our owners are so out of touch that they wouldn't have been fully aware of the vitriol and anger this would create. They surely knew we would all hate it.

I find it easier to believe that FSG with their "I don't understand why English football even has more than one league" (or whatever they said) would be the ones not realising fans would hate this.

This all depends on what we were told. We may have joined had had the rug ripped from under us.

good man Ric. And may I just say your behaviour on this board in this last year is much improved. Not gone unnoticed by the senior posters.

 

[Keeper!]

It would be a disgrace if they had not, the future of the club is in the air

 

[SanPellegrini]

Got to be us, surely!?

Good news and hopefully true.

Though I don’t see how United or Liverpool could have misled us or any other founder club. I said this earlier, but the statements from each club were identical, and that indicates to me that a pre-contract has been signed. I don’t see how we would have done that without considerable legal and commercial review.

Putting that to one side, the club has published a Glazer quote on its site, and put its name on a stern letter to UEFA et al. Even if we now back out, I don’t think that can be forgiven by the fans, but we can probably learn to ignore it with time

 

[hgblue]

Purely from a selfish PR aspect, I'd want us to be going alone on it.

Doing it with Chelsea just changes the narrative from taking a stand to bottling it.

There's an open goal awaiting either of us, simply because the other English teams signed up to it are needing it to stay afloat.

Have you thought this through?
