Leagues to sue Fifa over abuse of dominance

[Gorton_Tubster]

Seems there might be some trouble brewing. I hope it doesn't affect the world club Cup next year.

But isn't that the same, well sort of the same accusation babe made admit the Premier league and their abuse of dominance, or tyranny of the majority.

Nonetheless I think we might be headed for player strikes?

I agree with FIFA calling the PL hypocritical.

If they really wanted to help players they'd reduce the PL to 18 teams to allow clubs in Europe a bit of a rest.

Can't help but think they wouldn't be so arsed if Liverpool and the rags were earning money from the inaugural world club cup.

Using player tiredness as the cover. Cunts.

Exactly my thoughts.

Only two PL clubs have qualified for the Club World Cup so it will not impact on anyone else. In fact it will help our rivals. The problem is there are too many meaningless international games.

Great response from FIFA. This wouldn't even be up for discussion if united and liverpool were England's representatives and were trousering the cash. Indeed, the PL and FA would be falling over themselves to facilitate their participation.

Agreed.

Both us and Chelsea will have a cash advantage over the typical redshirts with the prize money on offer for that tournament.

Had the redshirts qualified the hype for it would have started straight after the euros.

The opposition is driven by other clubs who resent the huge prize money on offer in the new Club World Cup. It is higher than the CL.

Clubs travelling the world to play pre-season friendlies. Newcastle and Spurs even travelled to Australia just after the season had finished to play a couple of friendlies. So hypocritical.

Looks like we are in for a treat when the clubs decide who to side with on this one, what are the players unions doing whilst Rome burns?
