Admittedly I haven't read every comment on this thread so I would be happy to be corrected. Having read the club's statement it looks to be the breakaway clubs are in conflict with the Champions League/EUFA, nothing else so far as the club's are concerned. An organisation that has been vindictive towards City for a decade and creamed off the majority of the revenues from the CL. City and the others are still looking to play in the PL or their respective national leagues. The threat against us doing that comes from EUFA who want to hang onto their cash cow and the PLteams not involved. This includes several who very recently wanted us docked points/chucked out etc. What's so wrong with City continuing with the PL and an alternative competition to the CL and one that EUFA have no control over?
City -- and all the other clubs in the SL -- will bin off their domestic leagues as soon as practical, or will be binned off (I suspect the former). SL 1.0 is a simple precursor to SL 2.0 -- a closed 20 (maybe 24) team league which will play on weekends and replace both the CL and the domestic leagues.
 
So UEFA dude saying we will be expelled from this seasons Cl on Friday

You can't take a steaming dump on their competition and then expect to still be allowed to play in it. That is what annoys me the most. We worked so hard to establish ourselves as a Champions League side, we even went to court to fight to play in it, our players and manager have worked so hard to get to the semi finals and line up a potential cracker of a tie against PSG and then in the course of a single weekend those in charge have thrown that work away.
 
Arsenal fan here, I used to come on here and chat with you guys because you seemed to have one of the more lively online fan forums, particularly in the General Football section. Logging back on after literal years just to say SAME. The fucking statement on our website doesn't have anything from anyone Arsenal, but a Glazer quote. These people don't understand football at a fundamental level, they don't care and they will gleefully feast on its carcass.
It's the same statement on all the ESL clubs.

I believe City privately hope it fails. Man Utd, Livepool and Arsenal thought to be the ones who have driven this and City to weak to stand our ground.

I'm hoping for a super-fast exit. Surely the PL and UEFA would be super happy to see the potential PL champions exit this, and would be accommodating.

Universal horror with this. I don't much care for the CL but it's the end of the link to domestic competition that saddens me and the suggestion of no relegation/invitation to founding members. That jus means no competition.
 
Time to panic and exit fast.

I reject the idea that we can't exit seeing as we are only pragmatic entrants only. This is a Man Utd/Livepool/ Real Madrid/Juve baby. We are invitees to give it credibility.

Kill it, exit and salvage what little reputation we have.

We're supposed to be super smart, super adept operators. Well see how the land lies and realise this is not happening.
Yes we joined under 'duress' because United, Liverpool, Chelsea, Spurs and Arsenal are joining and we can't be left behind.

Chelsea also joined under 'duress' because United, Liverpool, City, Spurs and Arsenal are joining and they can't be left behind.

Spurs also joined under 'duress' because United, Liverpool, City, Chelsea and Arsenal are joining and they can't be left behind.

Liverpool also joined under 'duress' and so on and so on
