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

[M18CTID]

Well done lads!

Cheers. Easiest decision we’ve ever made!

I don't. I'm predicting what will happen. I might be wrong. But I don't think I will be. I don't know the timing.

So far every time I've asked others for their counter-predictions I haven't received them.

I think this inevitably leads to the Super League clubs leaving their domestic leagues. If you disagree that this isn't the inevitable outcome, I'd be happy to hear why.

I've said this for years by the way. I've always expected a Super League to eventually happen. I didn't think it would be now, but maybe I should have in retrospect, thinking about COVID and the current financial condition of the sport relative to the past.

Fair enough, the ESL will be a roaring success, UEFA will fold and all the doom mongers will stop supporting Stockport County and come back again ;)

"... Maybe in another generation, when other lads have come to take our place, we'll sell our souls to be like rags and scousers, to keep City in the race..."

I’m nicking that!

As a matter of interest this SL is supposed to comprise 20 clubs of whom 15 are "Founding Members" and 5 qualifying somehow. At the moment there are only 12 founding members so where do the other 3 come from given that PSG and BM aren't (currently) interested?

They said, they expected 3 more to join. My guess is Porto chickened out, maybe someone like Seville or Napoli?

Im desperate to win the league still. I imagine pep and the players are the same.

horrible situation thats couldnt have come at a worse time. Undermines our whole season.

It certainly does. Makes you wonder about the timing of it and whether the dippers and rags led this announcement.

Nottingham Forest two times Super League winners.

What a fucking joke.

Two time winners and not allowed to compete!

Am I bad for thinking UEFA might rescind all the European trophies that the rags and dippers have previously won lol

It certainly does. Makes you wonder about the timing of it and whether the dippers and rags led this announcement.

Right after the Rags PL game. Fucking bent.

Can we transfer the Joan Grampy trophy?

No relegation, promote 4 and invite Celtic and Rangers in.

I don't think that will save the PL, Celtic & Rangers are both shite. Are people in China going to want to watch Rangers v Norwich or Rags v Real Madrid?

The TV money in the PL will go through the floor if the 6 clubs leave. They know they hold the cards which is why they are trying to do this.
