Been on their forum? Good 80% of them want this!

The poll of this on any forum will reflect which region the fanbase is from on there. You can easily separate the core fans from casuals and people who don't seem to care

Would love for us to step away from this. Makes me feel sick that we're even mentioned with these teams. Good on the Germans and PSG for not taking part.

Should be the move.

Had an interesting conversation with someone I take a good deal of notice of.

The American owned clubs/Barca and Madrid don't have much say in this matter. They always say follow the money...

The power play is not by the clubs, but by the American banks that hold huge amounts of their debt.

Covid has accelerated the concerns of when United, Liverpool and Arsenal can start paying this down more quickly.

JP Morgan and others are essentially paying themselves, fronting the cash for the formation and knowing it is coming straight back to them to pay down those huge debt piles.

They have also made sure these revenue streams last long after the clubs have paid back their debts.

City and Chelsea were seemingly between a rock and hard place of what best served their own interests.

The governments of the countries concerned could get together with their respective FAs and put up political and administrative barriers and legislate this whole shit show out of existence if they really wanted.
They won't though because they've probably got their own snouts in some trough of dubious provenance, so that route is probably a non starter.

Let's face it, corporate greed has been influencing the game we love since it was reinvented by Sky in 1992. That influence has just taken a giant step towards total control.

Fucking hell, 'legacy fans'. Consigned to the scrap heap in 2 words. That's pushed me over the edge, my fucking football club has dumped me after 37 years of marriage.

It's not you it's me. I just feel that I want to explore new things and find myself before it's too late.

The first round of drafts have been concluded. We have got Marcus Rashford. KDB has gone to Liverpool.
