European Super League | ECJ rule that UEFA and FIFA acted unlawfully in blocking Super League (p 29)

The inter galactic league?

Those Martians are known to do a bit of sport washing and I find their grounds generally lack atmosphere.

I still find them much more trustworthy and honourable than the slimes at PiGMOL and the PL.

Would we even be invited join? Surely it's the last thing the people behind would want isn't?

Don't you love those American owners, aren't they cute, don't you love they're little conspiracies behind the scenes.

They definitely wouldn't want their 'favoured' clubs to be facing the kind of football we play, so I wouldn't expect an invite,

You are Craig David

Charges brought on Monday
City fans arguing on Tuesday
Super league hatched on Wednesday
Planned on Thursday and Friday and Saturday
We get beat by villa on Sunday

Beautiful, can't get that earworm out of my head

There's nothing solid here, no clubs attached no detailed plans, no announcement of it happening.

It's 100% the Super League people seeing the City case in the news and their PR firm trying to say "See! This is why we need a Super League"

it also seems to be an independent management company being noisy - the leagues and UEFA don't seem involved, or not publically.

As you say, it looks like opportunism from A22, who seem to be a media man from Germany.

I, for one, am shocked

Who would have thought. City charged then this, linked, I think so.

Apparently English clubs cannot join it?

'Premier League clubs can't join a breakaway league' - Why ESL plans have little chance of succeeding

Kaveh Solhekol explains why Premier League clubs cannot join a new-look European Super League or any other breakaway league.

Pretty sure that they signed an agreement with the premier league saying that if they try to go the will get a £300m fine

The more I think about this the more I am leaning towards being in favour. We are not wanted in our current national leagues and we are not wanted in the Champs League either.

The current system is weighted against us in every respect and this would give us more of a footing in world football. As long as the league is a merit based system which any team can qualify for the PL and UEFA can crash and burn in my view.

 

[Bluesince1979]

Can't the plastic 'traditionally successful' teams fuck off into that and leave the rest of us to it in a domestic league?

We'd likely lose our owners and everything that comes with them but to be honest, it wouldn't stop me attending matches home and away.

This race for bigger revenues is depressing.

Much as we are involved in that race, it fuckin stinks doesnt it
