Super League: Nicht nur die Fußballfans sorgten für den Einsturz

Es war keineswegs nur der Aufschrei der Fußballfans, der die Super League zum Einsturz brachte – sondern auch die große Weltpolitik.

Main points of the article - via [@Pierre\_B\_y](https://twitter.com/Pierre_B_y)

* Putin asked Abrahamovitch to withdraw from ESL. Because of Gazprom links with UCL, because 2022 final is in Saint Petersburg, and because Zenit needs to be in the best competition.
* JP Morgan was a middle man, the money actually came from Saudi Arabia
* UAE asked ManCity to withdraw because they try to build a progressist image of their country and don't want to be associated with Saudi Arabia
* 50 millions has already been spent in marketing and legal fees by the 12 breakaway clubs
* Florentino Perez construction company signed a 6.5 billion euros deal in Saudi Arabia, to built the new Saudi "Las Vegas"

The other 14 look like they're doing everything in their power to push the greedy six together, they're going about this totally wrong

Ha ha. First the G14, now these 14 twats.

Rally round and defend our club? With all the flouncing and wet knickers on here for the past few days we struggle to get a five a side team.

think you might be right but I could get a few together if you can :) :)

Gary Neville, milking this shit for all he's worth. The self proclaimed defender of the game accusing the 6, in no particular order, of the following "criminal acts"...

Murder
Killing
Assault

But thats enough about the scousers..

One repercussion will be being known as The Shameful Six.

First mention after about ten minutes in the Arsenal v Everton game.

Tyler just said the shameful six in his commentary.

how does this moron keep his job? He can’t commentate- he just witters on about things & records of years ago. Must take a full portfolio of notes to each match (probably researched by some lackey) reads it out and thinks he’s interesting. He can’t hide his bias to certain clubs & generally gets on everyone’s nerves.

Who if any would you rather lose through the fallout of the superleague?

Ferran Soriano or Khaldoon Al Mubarak?.

It's all about him and not the game.

Fine them heavily and share it out between the other 86 clubs to help with covid losses

Well I will be watching and listening to the old senile twat when he does the rags and dippers. I will be amazed if he says it.
