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

[Craig]

If the government are serious about the 50+1 model, City would have the most to lose from this. I'm not saying that at 51% fan run City would be a bad thing, but out of all the owners in the Premier League, we have got by far the best (if they climb down on the ESL).

I'm not sure our owners would stick around if their interest was capped at 49%.

Fuck them

 

[Snoogy]

Embarrassing if that's the case. If the owners/management have only just realised they will alienate fans then they are incompetent, ignorant and divorced from reality.

"...something something only got involved at last minute, expected more discussion around proposals, all moved faster than we expected or are happy with, obvious that format is detrimental to football, we're out, we're the good guys, honest.."

 

[Mike N]

Have we backed out yet?

You mean the execs that brought you the Tunnel Club and moved out long terms fans to do so.

Not to mention the corporate second tier. Our the creation of the 'family stand' behind the goal.

It will be interesting to hear Peps stance on this.

“Aston Villa will be a tough game. What Super League? First I’m hearing of it.”

 

[jimbopm]

They definitely wouldn't stick around if the 51% were 'legacy fans'. They've made it clear how little they think of us.

We don't know where that term has been coined, so let's give them the benefit of the doubt for now, although it certainly does sound like something Soriano would say.

Man United Vs Milan for the rest of time in the "I was big in the 90s" cup.

The football equivalent of Heaven 17, Go West, Bananarama and Belinda Carlisle appearing at a Here and Now weekender at Pontins

 

[Keeper!]

I've been saying this since the announcmeent, the alternative that has been presented by UEFA is a fucking pisstake. It's just total 'staus quo' bollocks.

We come out now, we can be at the top of the que deciding the correct way forward, whatever the outcome there will be serious changes to the game as it is now

 

[Carlos- the- jackal]

Can we fuck off this legacy fan term that keeps getting an airing, it’s a load of old shite!

 

[Ric]

Great. Our owners throwing our manager into the lions.

Fucking pathetic.

I imagine he'll just diplomatically swerve the questions, saying that he's only here to talk about the Villa game.

 

[Nails]

well done Boris - he is the man.

Well, he is A man.

 

[SWP's back]

do you have to be a City supporter to post here?

I seem to have a fan in you, you're following me about like a bad smell

Tbf it’s hard to miss you on this thread.

 

[Keeper!]

Have we backed out yet?

still twitching but trying to pull out

 

[p.taker]

“Aston Villa will be a tough game. What Super League? First I’m hearing of it.”

Only Aston Villa, guys.

 

[LongsightM13]

I want us to be the club that pulls out - as we all do

But lets get one thing straight as well. If we do decide to do the right thing and leave this ESL proposal then we need to make sure that there are reforms at UEFA bot institutionally and with its competition

UEFA should not in any way shape or form be seen as a good guy in all of this, they have ultimately led European football into this saga buy giving away power every year, piece by fucking piece to the old G14 mafia

Now with added Tebas...

 

[wolviedinho]

SSN just read out an open letter from the Burnley chairman. He likes writing letters doesn’t he?

At least he is using his 6th finger to good use;)

 

[SWPISHOME]

After 5 years of throwing him £20m a year, a £1b squad etc, I think it’s the least Pep can do.

He’ll be fine.

Still doesn't make it ok though for the hierarchy to all stay hiding. They should be the ones facing the media regardless what money Pep is on.

Disappointed in pep thought he was a man of principle
