Newcastle is already up for sale and they aren’t tarnished by the SL shithousery. Since the Arabs were denied by the FA there hasn’t been a word about any new suitors. Furthermore, Newcastle is a much better value proposition than Spurs/Arsenal/rags insofar as it has much less debt and could grow massively if someone puts a winning project together there based on their fanbase. Why pay a huge premium for to fix those shitshows up?
And its a one club city with a massive catchment area. A little bit of success and they would be buzzing. Though they are as Fickle as fuck
 
Was it ever established whether the penalty clause stuff was true and if so, who would get that money? Those 3 clubs still hanging on is so absurd, I'm starting to wonder whether it's a case of last club to leave gets the penalty clause money or something.
Or they think they're still getting the £300million plus from JP Morgan for joining up in the first place. Have the bankers spoken yet?
 


Who are they going to play???

Wouldn’t surprise me with that league with Tebas in charge if they just played Madrid 20 times around the world and got paid an obscene amount to clear their debts, tax free of course as Spanish teams tend to avoid paying tax. Or could do with Madrid did before and sell the Government a flower pot for 600 million or something.

That’s not how it works.

JP Morgan agrees to secure funding for the SL. They will not be providing funding from their own coffers, instead they act as an advisor. They provide marketing and lending expertise, securitization advisory (loans vs bonds vs stocks etc) as well as a large contact list of institutional lenders like insurance companies, asset managers and hedge funds that would be potentially interested in buying the securities marketed by JP Morgan.

Since the project fell apart, there will be no funds since nobody is interested in lending money to de-facto bankrupt clubs.

Though I do not speak for JP Morgan, I work there, though not on this project nor did I know about it. On Monday I let my boss know I will be leaving before the end of the year.
 
20 fuckin scruffy no marks with nowt better to do turn up at the rags training ground with their usual shite bedsheet banners and it’s lead story on Sky Sports website, you couldn’t make these cunts up!
To be fair to the fuckers, they’ve always been right about the Glazers. I know three lads who pretty much went to every United home game from about 1990-2005 and haven’t been back since the Glazers took over.

Agreed. I'm sacking off tribalism for the time being and I'll say right now their fans were 100% right about these cunts.
 
Going from, let's say £200,000 a week to £100,000 a week is hardly suffering, is it?
It's just that players have got used to fantasy wages and bringing them down would be painful.
From our eyes no. But it's still harsh on them. And even if a wage cap came in all current contracts would have to be paid.
 
A bit tongue in cheek but they should make Champions League qualification based on a profit league table.
That would give everyone an incentive to run their clubs properly.

Be like the eurovision.
Barcelona gives Liverpool, dix points, and 148m coutinho moneys.
