New European Super League Breakaway Threat

Hopefully it will get a similar backlash from the fans as Project Big Picture.

Unfortunately because of their global fan base, I fear it will succeed

they’re not bothered about bums on seats - they just want TV money

Me too. Fuck them.

We have to join or risk being left behind. We have qualified for the Champions league for the last 9 seasons on the bounce.

So the English clubs would play 74 games a season, assuming they’re not playing in any cup competitions? Can’t see it.

That’s what the article says yes. Not sure what would happen to the domestic cups.

It would be interesting to see the list of 18 teams. I cant imagine how 18 can include 6 teams from the Prem. I mean what is the criteria for selection if Spurs are being touted as being involved?

HUGE DEBT

guess this is the counter to FA chairman Greg Clarke’s response to the Prick Project, who stated that the FA licence clubs/players to play in the champions league, not sure if he said England but the fact FIFA are onboard will surely allow them to circumnavigate that little issue.....time for UEFA to bring down Rick Parry who’s been lurking in the background like Senator Palpatine on acid

If Bundesliga and Premier League and La Liga hold hands and kick the big clubs out , im sure big clubs will come back.

Just kick them out

No consideration for the match day fan. Carte blanche for the feral bin dippers to run amok across Europe every other week though. The whole football ethos in this country is being undermined by the red shirted scum bags for money

I’m just sad to be associated with these types of plans, it won’t be the same Manchester City if we leave the premier league. To me this stinks of give us plan a or we leave

I see the Decree Absolute has landed in the big clubs and media’s Divorce from fans.
Its always tough to accept when a relationship is over but when both parties grow apart then it’s time to accept it and move on.
Question is do I start supporting grass roots football or walk away completely? I have several unopened audible books.

It wouldn’t be a case of leaving the PL according to the article.
