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

[MCFC1993]

Hopefully they move with the same lightning speed that they did Brexit. That'll sort things out.

Football matches on fishing boats in the English channel incoming.

Please God let it be us, and that we do the right thing.

Interested to see how this all pans out. I think Utd Arsenal Pool are desperate for it due to lack of recent success and like the security of the franchise model. City hopefully will say we listened to the fans and will pull out of this grubby scheme leaving us looking like saviours of the English game and the others looking like the badly managed greedy twats they are.

This thread is adding pages after pages faster than any match day thread does or even that Messi thread from "that" day ... it's hard to keep up ... slow down guys, a little collective calm down :)

I can understand the club playing the percentages here. I understand why they signed up and the more I've read over the last 48 hrs leads me to think it was just to pacify the other founding members for the time being whilst exploring all other options.
What I'd love to believe now is after doing our due dilligance we have come to the decision that this isn't in the clubs best interests.
Still time to redeem yourselves City.

If journalists cared about the outcome - and these are football journos, so it's not like they're expected to be impartial observers - then maybe it would be better not to use terms like "losing their nerve" or "first to crack". Given so much of this is about good/bad PR, then I'd be more inclined not to pull out if it's being framed in such a negative way.

Interesting points but when politicians are involved things can change. Already we have our government saying no foreign players will be given visas to play in the ESL. I don’t know if they would follow through but they could do that in a day.

You really think some of those owners wouldn't just move the club? At least one of them has already done that in the US. Ok, they didn't move them out of the country but wouldn't put it past them.

Of course, but it's now escalated into something far bigger. We have to forget the wrongs of the past for now IMO. Harry Potter wouldn't have beaten Voldemort without the Slytherins.

What a quote this is, love it.
