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

[Gaylord du Bois]

Seems quite clear from Barcelona's statement that they are desperate.

"Barcelona?" "Who are they?"

I didn’t see the match but a friend who is a Villa fan did. When we started talking about recent events he basically said -

“I wish your lot would just fuck off to a Super League. You’re playing the game at a level we’ve never seen before and we cannot dream to match. It was embarrassing, it was men against boys.”

Hadn’t thought about it like that before.

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.

Are you Ed Woodward?

Can’t afford to the release clause, probably.

Gross debt of over €1 bn.

Whiff of desperation. They’re really going to push for this.

So now time for UEFA and FIFA to show some balls. Inform all Barcelona players they cannot play for their countries. Inform Barcelona they can no longer compete in any UEFA competition.

Given Perez's responses so far I'd seriously consider the latter. If I was a friend or relative I'd have serious concerns over his mental welfare.

When is his next TV interview? Can’t wait, I’ve got the choc ices and popcorn in

Smacks of the greedy bastard wanting his cake and eating it.

His name's Perez, not Toure.

McGinn said the same. I guess when it's your team and it's a tight game you don't see it. I mean you know at times we're bloody good but I think back more to the 100 point season when I think of that standard.
