Repercussions - From the PL, FA, UEFA and within the Club

Attempting tp punish any of the clubs involved in the ESL would be a potential disaster. Despite the attempts of the MEN to argue that the English clubs broken Rule 19 of the PL guidelines, they clearly haven't. Conspiracy to conspire is not a charge with much mileage in it and a points deduction of 30, 35 or even 40 points as Daniel Murphy suggests would ensure that football's civil war really did break out in ugly, protracted courtroom battles. And we know who would win.

And UEFA will not charge in to put the boot in. Ceferin must be aware that UEFA has had a very narrow escape. The ESL collapsed not because fans stood loyally by UEFA but because the fans want genuine, competitive football competitions. Pep made this point in his press conference and highlighted other issues in the game which show how little the players and managers actually figure in decision making. How many - 90%? - clubs never do, and never will, figure in the CL? And yet UEFA's own plans to revamp the CL were dripping in entitlement and 'istry and all the guff fans are sick of hearing. While 90% of clubs get a stark "stick within your budget, or else" message. Ceferin was mighty lucky that plans for the ESL were so half baked, hurried and botched or UEFA would have been in serious trouble. If he doesn't buck up his ideas the 'istry clubs will be back with plans that have to be taken much more seriously. The best way to hasten that day would be to try and punish the twelve disciples of the ESL in a blaze of triumphalism. UEFA has to involve "the football family" (!!!!) in genuine discussion of the very real problems facing European football but at the moment it not so much a governing body as a commercial competitor. And there may be a lot of dirty linen keeping it that way.
 
Why didnt the fa or premier league step in when the other teams all got to gether and wrote those letters against us. Isn't that conspiring against us. Fucking shit houses the lot of them and a slow painful death to all of the fuckers fucking hate every fucking one . Complete wankstains . Also poison all half time media food for the horrible 2 faced shitejawks .
 
Any sanctions, if they could actually impose them, would probably have most fans of the six clubs saying, fuck them, let's leave then. Why should innocent fans, players and managers suffer for something they knew nothing about? Tebez has already said the Spanish clubs won't be punished so that's Europe done and dusted.
 
UEFA need to get their own house in order as they have been guilty of allowing a number of clubs to dictate to them and have created the issues for clubs like City. PSG have found a way of by-passing some of the problems by getting a position on the board.

Tbh there isn't much difference between UEFA's approach and that of the failed ESL and that is what is really unacceptable.

Deal with the real issues of entitlement, greed and debt to create a more level playing field for the clubs who are trying to make the game competitive .

Pie in the sky I guess because the " old guard " are too greedy, entrenched and devious for this to happen, together with corruption within the ranks of the organisation which has blocked any progressive moves for any of the new money teams.

Points deduction or bans from competitions would not only hurt the owners of the clubs but also the very people who protested so vociferously that it led to the project being shelved (at least for now). The fans, players and coaches shouldn't be punished for their clubs owners mistake.

Whilst I agree entirely when has any governing body ever considered the fans?

Utter shite. The early kick off on Saturday actually is better as it gives us longer to prepare for the bigger match on Tuesday night.
