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

[PannickAtTheDisco]

Scummy cunts. Our players and staff worked incredibly hard for that title so for those bellends to even jokingly claim our title is a disgrace. Kind of disrespect and lack of dignity that created this problem for them in the first place.

if we are sharing quotes on the official website from Pep, i am now more convinced we are not fully invested in this

 

[we are the east stand]

You can see what’s going to happen here, Liverpool, Arsenal or Spurs are going to pull out here first to try and rescue some “credibility”... we’ll stay silent and do nothing as per

Oh my goodness I'm at the end!! I've caught up. Right you can start posting again now! :-)

[vicblueman]

[TheThirdDeano]

Hope the pl teams start being weary of the American cunts trying tod retort the game.

I've been saying for years that they are the danger

 

[IOWBlue]

So Micheal Jordan, Lebron James, Payton Manning arnt sports mega stars??

Deary me.

who the fuck are they?

 

[Steve68]

If anything it should be the Americans changing their sports format.

And drive on the correct side of the road and pronounce the “h” in “herb”. :)

Absolutely. City can't ignore the backlash from their own supporters. Let's face it we don't have as many global fans as LFC and MUFC and a totally different business model based on community partnerships across the world. We can't afford to put all that at risk. City and Chelsea (for different reasons) have a lot more to lose from this if it goes tits up. We don't have 100 million overseas fans who will buy up digital subscriptions to watch our games.

United don't have 100 million people who would pay for their games. They are living in a dream world and Gary Neville is utterly clueless if he thinks United would draw those numbers. They have 170K subscribers to MUTV. It's one thing saying you follow a club, it's a totally different matter when it comes to handing over your cash.

We didn't win the 2014/15 title, it was Chelsea.

 

[Keeper!]

who the fuck are they?

world champion rounders players

I think we’re treading a very thin line, the real moment of decision is still to come.

 

[Nicholas van Whatsisface]

I agree that both alternatives as contemplated now are poor, with neither 100% merit-based in rule.

But here's the difference: the ESL is the inevitable step in the direction of a permanently closed league in which City play against only those clubs in that league. Not today, but eventually.

Why? Because a permanently closed league can recycle every last drop of revenue among its members, with no leakage to and no sharing with the rest of the professional game.

Obviously that's not how the ESL is currently contemplated -- what with 5 "open slots" and solidarity payments -- but it's what the owners would quite logically want. They want to blow up the entire pyramid structure and replace it with a closed system, as in America.

That’s a very fair supposition mate, and you’re probably right on the ESL end game.

I guess after years of our club being viciously attacked and undermined at every turn by this exact entity for nothing more than an owner investing in his business, I have a lot less trust in the integrity of UEFA, Gill (who is still part of UEFA, let’s remember) Bayern, Rummenigge, Dortmund, Watzke, PSG and al-Khelaifi than most people on here seem to.

You could just as easily surmise the end game of UEFA as being exactly the same as your version with the ESL given their ‘first steps’ in that direction - and with the shysters involved, I’d imagine you’d be right.

“Now the anger of the 14 clubs, now this is really important, it’s not directed at the six premier league clubs.
These 14 clubs have nothing against Arsenal, Spurs, Manchester United, Liverpool, Chelsea”
Think you forgot someone there you twat.
If it’s that important you’d think he’d at least get it right.
Never liked that smarmy ****.

He got it spot on. They don’t like us.

I'm more than happy to talk about the new Super League at length. We promise to support lower League clubs and we will. For example our out of date pies will now be donated to @StockportCounty rather then be kept on a low light for another week.

 

[Saddleworth2]

However bad we might make them look, we've hardly covered ourselves in glory here. If this is part of some devious master plan then it'd better be a bloody good one.

Master plan? Don't think so mate. Monumental fuck up far more probable. Given everything we know these clubs have thrown at us I find it increasingly incredible that we would put our names to this. It was probably our biggest ever opportunity to change the narrative around our club and our owners have shot themselves in both feet.

 

[hampshireblue]

Come on City-do the right and thing and apologise you've made a massive mistake and rescind this mad decision.

 

[yankblue]

And drive on the correct side of the road and pronounce the “h” in “herb”. :)

Now you've gone to far. Next you'll be demanding we pronounce the 'i' in aluminium

The guy is a loon !

Ha ha didn’t say that lol
