The Super League | FA + PL: New Charter & Fines | UEFA: Settlement

Why is this not on the BBC?

Am I missing it.

Also this should be in the main Forum MODS!!

It’s amazing. Football and City’s exploits have really distracted me through lockdown and work. Going for a quadruple until yesterday and my stomach being in a knot for games has been a great ride. Been posting on the pre match Villa thread and speculating about that and the final afterwards.
With one bit of news I’m almost disenfranchised.

So have UEFA though.

Think this is spot on. Citys best self-interest is probably getting into the boys club in the super league.

Its a shame the murder of domestic football will be the price, but hey atleast we didnt instigate it. All though we probably will get the blame for this as well, even though Perez and the pathetic yanks have their fingerprints all over the scene

But Europe is the only place to play football at the top level. Latin American leagues might not have a wage cap, or a limit to the wages:turnover ratio, but there is (for now) nowhere near enough money in their league system to remotely compete with Europe. Not sure about the MLS though, to be fair. Anyway what I mean is clearly this super league isn't proposing a literal wage cap, but a limit to spending will have a similar effect.

Correct, it may not be called a salary cap but a limit on what percentage of revenue can be spent on players wages is a still a salary cap.

Would players be allowed to leave for free as they signed thinking they were playing in the premier league team and perhaps champions league ?

I’m really looking forward to Soriano explaining to us his thought process...

I See this is already being twisted as the only way clubs like Liverpool and Milan can compete due to our spending, ycmiu

 

[city2]

These teams are gonna have to have huge squads of players and the quality in games will suffer as we seen on sat

 

[feedmpenzaandhewillscore]

Does this get killed stone dead as the English clubs need permission from the premier league to actually join a new competition? The premier league have come out against this move with their statement.

Or maybe Khaldoon, he usually likes the sound of his own voice
