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

[better dead than red]

15% “Club awareness” fund is basically a G14/establishment club premium to allow them to spend more than the others. Maybe united’s laughable bullshit about Twitter followers and 1.1billion fans has an endgame after all

Manchester United? Never 'eard of it. Sounds shite!

But PSG didn't sign so Bayern out

Yes but that is the only workable combination if you ban the other three teams left that have joined the ESL. Or you have a default victory and hand it to PSG and make a mockery of your own competition to the advantage of the ESL.

Only precedent I can think of that resulted in a default win, is a tragedy. A Brazilian team died in a plane crash on their way to the final of a continental competition and their opponents agreed the trophy should be awarded posthumously out of respect and solidarity.

Money is an issue but closed competitions, that's the piss take.

Then you'll be equally annoyed by the announcement that the Champions League will offer guaranteed places to the bigger clubs?

The competition needed slimming down not expanding, there are far too many predictable matches which noone wants to watch.

It's tough to find a solution as the self-anointed "Big six" will only be happy if they have a permanent place in the conpetition which obviously reduces the competitiveness and credibility of it.

It made me laugh reading Joel Glazer going on about the "football pyramid." There is no pyramid if you close off the opportunity for clubs to progress higher up.

This morning I was confident that this was a bargaining tactic on the part of the clubs involved. After hearing Ceferin and others quotes from today I'm less confident a deal will be agreed between UEFA and the ESL clubs. Very worrying times for all those that care about the future of the sport.

It's fucking disgraceful and absolutely filled with hypocrisy is what it is
Turning their back on the club because it's joined the elite, despite indulging in the success funded by the person who had now shifted the club into that elite group.

If I choose to turn my back on my club, it has nothing to do with City being an elite club. It’s 100% that I don’t agree with a closed shop, invitation only money printing league as that will be terrible for football

Can you explain how you deem that to be hypocritical?

What were your thoughts on the CL when we were a mid table or yo yo club? Did you think it was fair that the same 4 teams were coining it in every season, increasing the disparity of those who had & those who hadn’t?

Did you think that was fair & great for City & the wider footballing family?

These owners are not stupid to rake in all this extra income only to send over on paychecks to the player.

salary cap will come in to make sure the profit wont be wasted on overpaid subs etc.

why anyone think current state of financials with Barcelona in a billion in debt etc was able to keep on going?

Covid hit clubs so hard and not everyone so lucky as City that owners can put the money in. Kroenke, Henry aint wanna put in anything and they losing a lot too due to covid.

current corrupt Uefa has to go, and rightly so, now they make themselves as saviour of football but we know that trick all too well.

 

[chaddblue]

Dippers are.

Dippers aren't getting re-instated. They're the one of the 4 losing quarter finalists that are signed up

 

[kaz7]

Mainly because it keeps being posted by people then labelling them scum, traitors or cunts, which I believe is also against the CoC.

yeah the comments are not good

 

[tolmie's hairdoo]

Prince wills is on the fans side

I would rather be on his missus' side!

I thought you were team Harry anyway, Kaz ;)

E

I'll lay you odds tonight he uses it as a platform to quit.

He's an apologist for the scouse deluded fan base, he's totally bought into the cult.

More likely to now martyr himself with the Bayern job on offer and having already fallen out with FSG in January for not getting money to spend.

as thinking same thing before
He wants a way out now they can’t win anything and what a great chance

 

[Dodge]

Is it just me or does the sight of UEFA pushing the moral integrity & honesty of the beautiful game, SKY adopting the holier than thou high ground and punters such as Neville going full Warnock, stick in the throat.

All these fuckers will be gorging at the trough when the inevitable happens.

"Welcome to the dawn of a new PPV era, Juve v Barca...its the ESL...its here, its football for the next generation....AND IT'S LIVE".

Fuck off.
