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

[Citizen of Legoland]

Good on him.

So is NFL and NBA not sport then?

No

 

[I'm Blue]

The thing is, the anticompetitive nature of it is bred from the pure fundamentals of it: guaranteed places, harder to get into, no relegation, more games etc.

Strip all of that away and you’re left with what we have: the Champions League which is the most sought-after trophy in club football.

The ESL is purely a way to make sure clubs who are fucked financially have a way to get money back. It’s nonsense.

My hatred for UEFA is certainly clouding my judgment on the super league.
Though I’m 100% against it in its current format.

Just watch, they’ll have to give the fans some crumb of comfort. Pep gave a hint there, it will be some sort of relegation and promotion system that they already have mapped out.

My only hope is that we’re listed as ‘in’ as a way of keeping all doors and all options open.
Maybe as a means of getting UEFA and the PL to agree to finally stop hounding us as they have done constantly for the last decade.

I know that it sounds a bit far fetched but there’s still a remote possibility that this ‘could’ be us saying, get reasonable, treat us fairly or we’ll take our ball and go play elsewhere.

Thanks for that observation.

well it’s true. Pep gave more than anyone expected

Different circumstance. They are sports in one nation which don't have a pyramid system.

Could have said he was totally against it.That It was a disgrace. Can it be possible that his compatriots have no knowledge of it? I just cant believe thats possible.

What a crock of shit. He basically just said he knows about as much as we do and it's shit based off of that. How daft can you be?

From the Sky tweet. Is Pep reading a script? Watch carefully, when he talk about sport is not sport etc.., he looking down at something on his left side, then look up and talk, then look down again, then look up and talk, like he reading something.

Pretty sure his posture is always like this.
