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

[Sam W]

So hypothetically does this sort itself out if the 6 founding clubs make a deal the Premier League that the places in the Super League each season go to the clubs finishing in the top domestic places (for instance top 4 plus the two domestic cup winners).

Likely to be the only way the Premier League would agree.

Other countries founding teams make their own domestic deals.

UEFA and associated corruption cut out of the deal.

Founding teams retain Super League voting rights.

Competion expandable globally to clubs outwith Europe if founding teams agree.

Just a thought.

I’m trying to convince myself that I’ll be ok. I love cricket more as a sport than football, but love City more than Lancashire.

Football’s a dear do, so could save me a packet and reignite my support of Lancashire.

Not this 20/20 stuff or hundred bollocks mind.

Like a punch to the gut, innit.

Rugby? F1? NFL? Guess I'd better choose.

I agree with the senitments but the national team is mostly made up from the players who are forming the Super League and watching them was tedious. Boris is powerless to stop it.

He had a duty to try. The PL is one of this countries biggest and best exports.

The founding members have their places guaranteed - there is effectively very little for the other PL teams to play for.

You know its a bit strange but I don't think I've seen any current players come out for or against this today. Did I miss something? What's up with that?

Out of those choices, can I choose the punch to the gut?

They'll have been told in no uncertain terms to zip it I imagine. I doubt they knew much earlier than Joe Public anyway.

Doubt Sky or BT will be in favour of it. It would probably not be them with the rights to it unless hey shelled out a lot more than they are currently doing. The Super League may well already have a deal in place for broadcasting rights.

yes i hear amazon dazn etc. Dazn already has issues with serie a. This is a real takeover by usa on europe s football.

Raz has been downing tools since the moment he heard. Explains everything!

They make more money if they play for an SL club, or if they might get or believe they’ll have a chance to join one. No one who makes more money with a Super League will say boo.
