Europe's "Major" teams want automatic Champions League qualification

[SWP's back]

You can guarantee we won't ever get an automatic entry and when it comes, the only other side to get in will be respective league winners so we finish top or miss out.

Just watch!

I honestly can't believe they'd even try and get this through. The whole very see through charade would fall apart.

It's a bit tenuous calling it the champions league now, just one more step towards a European farcical, sorry super league for the greedy bent cunts.

It would be football eating itself. At least at present they can pretend there is a meritocracy

The tv companies call the shots, they haven't dished out billions without having a say.
Another nail in the coffin of football as we knew it.
Uefa and Fifa are carrying on as if nothing has gone, we fans have no say in anything so i expect the worse, gill to front uefa, blatter mk2 to front fifa, the g14 to be backed by sky and bt and it's goodnight vienna for those outside the cartel

Fuck em, we just create our own UAE Invitational League. All clubs get 40m for entering and the winners 100m. Bye bye UEFA

Surely there is much more money attached to the Premier League now than Champs League.
I think ultimately the prem will leave the Champs League behind and will be the ones calling the shots, not has beens like AC Milan. Money talks and the Premier League is where the money is.

I always wanted us to be part of the elite.
This suggestion is about as corrupt and self entitled as anything I've seen in sport.

I'm with you pal. There are limits to how far anything can be pushed, from whatever source: think the Poll Tax, Dasani bottled water and the Godfather III.

They're going to call it the UsedToBe Champions League

The ECA's mission statement is "to create a new, more democratic governance model that truly reflects the key role of the clubs".

Bollocks.
